VRF.
Fixes#1089.

Don't set SO_MAX_PACING_RATE if the rate is 0. Also tweak some help text.

Add some documentation for fair-queueing per-socket pacing.

Change the fair-queueing socket pacing logic in response to feedback.
By default, on platforms where per-socket pacing is available, it
will be used. If not available, iperf3 will fall back to application-
level pacing.
The --no-fq-socket-pacing option can be used to forcibly disable
fair-queueing per-socket pacing. (The earlier --socket-pacing option
has been removed.)
Tested on CentOS 7, more testing on other platforms is required to
be sure it didn't break the old application-level pacing behavior.
For #325.

Checkpoint for initial work on #325 to add socket pacing.
This works only on Linux and depends on the availability of
the SO_MAX_PACING_RATE socket option and the fq queue discipline.
Use --socket-pacing to use SO_MAX_PACING_RATE instead of the
default iperf3 user-level rate limiting; in either case, the
--bandwidth parameter controls the desired rate.
Lightly tested with both --tcp and --udp, normal and --reverse.
Real testing requires analysis of packet timestamps between
multiple hosts.
Note this option only has a long option flag; we're running out of
letters for short options.
Based heavily on a patch submitted in Issue 131 (SCTP support for
iperf); I added support for FreeBSD and did some other packaging and
documentation improvements.
We probably shouldn't tie SCTP support to looking specifically for
Linux or FreeBSD; we probably leave support enabled all the time if
possible, possibly with some configure-time checks.
Also bumped package id from 3.0a4 to 3.0a5.
This changeset consists of a one-line edit to configure.ac, plus
about fifty kilolines of diffs to a bunch of other config files
generated by bootstrap.sh.
* Added -Wall to CXXFLAGS and CFLAGS. This generated a lot of noise in the
autotools generated files.
* Added initial AUTHORS file. This is incomplete, but it's a start.

* Rework threading. This is done by having a condition variable for the reporting
thread rather than using sched_yield and/or usleep.
* Address performance issues on non Linux systems by avoiding system calls
which are expensive on platforms other than Linux.
* Fixes from FreeBSD ports: max_size_t is now 64 bits and not Iperf does not
exit on ENOBUFS.
