vxlan: prefetch extra one cacheline holding external header

For vxlan_encap, code will touch memory area before the field "data"
in struct vlib_buffer_t, however so far it is not prefetched in cache
yet for this graph node.
After applying the patch, 2~3 cycles per pkt for vxlan4_encap can be
saved on Haswell. It will bring a lot of benefits on DVN platform too.
