crypto: SW scheduler async crypto engine

Type: feature

This patch adds new sw_scheduler async crypto engine.
The engine transforms async frames info sync crypto ops and
delegates them to active sync engines. With the patch it
is possible to increase the single worker crypto throughput
by offloading the crypto workload to multiple workers.

By default all workers in the system will attend the crypto
workload processing. However a worker's available cycles
are limited. To avail more cycles to one worker to process
other workload (e.g. the worker core that handles the RX/TX
and IPSec stack processing), a useful cli command is added
to remove itself (or add it back later) from the heavy
crypto workload but only let other workers to process the
crypto. The command is:

 - set sw_scheduler worker <idx> crypto <on|off>

It also adds new interrupt mode to async crypto dispatch node.
This mode signals the node when new frames are enqueued
as opposed to polling mode that continuously calls dispatch node.

New cli commands:
 - set crypto async dispatch [polling|interrupt]
 - show crypto async status (displays mode and nodes' states)
