Fix NSB PROX L3FWD dropping packets
JIRA: YARDSTICK-1037 Adjusted number of RX/TX descriptors to 2048, instead of default 256, in order to cope with interrupts during which no packets are received by the core, which results in the NIC dropping packets when it gets out of available descriptors to buffer them. Also adjusted mempool size, because more descriptors need more mbufs. This change aligns L3FWD test case with other test cases, for which number of RX/TX descriptors is already set to 2048.
