e.g. unix socket, ipc (with APP on kernel network stack), packet from kernel network stack.
1. Add a new directive kernel_network_stack :
Syntax: kernel_network_stack on | off;
Default: kernel_network_stack off;
Context: http, server
This directive is available only when NGX_HAVE_FF_STACK is defined.
Determines whether server should run on kernel network stack or fstack.
2. Use a simpler and more effective solution to discriminate fstack fd(file descriptor, only socket for now) from kernel fd.
Run with valgrind, and found this:

The error line is:
`la->sctpNatTimer.TimerQ = sn_calloc(SN_TIMER_QUEUE_SIZE, sizeof(struct
sctpTimerQ));`
Since SN_TIMER_QUEUE_SIZE is defined as SN_MAX_TIMER+2, and sn_calloc is
defined as sn_malloc(x * n) if _SYS_MALLOC_H_ is defined, the size of
calloced memory will be wrong, because the macro will be expanded to
sizeof(struct sctpTimerQ)*SN_MAX_TIMER+2.
And the memory will be out of bounds here.
```
/* Initialise circular timer Q*/
for (i = 0; i < SN_TIMER_QUEUE_SIZE; i++)
LIST_INIT(&la->sctpNatTimer.TimerQ[i]);
```
1.Close #22.
2.Configure the HW indirection table when initializing port.
3.Use several LSBs of the rss hash result according to reta_size when
calculating queue index.
