Reimplement linux/samples xdp programs in P4 #93

A nice way to show the usefulness of the compiler is to reimplement most of the xdp examples in the /linux/samples folder in pure P4 code. This is also a good way to determine discrepancies or detect missing features.

Ha yes, I actually got the idea when reading the performance section in the paper. It is a neat comparison.
