samples/bpf: xdpsock: Add sched policy and priority support

By default, TX schedule policy is SCHED_OTHER (round-robin time-sharing).
To improve TX cyclic scheduling, we add SCHED_FIFO policy and its priority
by using -W FIFO or --policy=FIFO and -U <PRIO> or --schpri=<PRIO>.

A) From xdpsock --app-stats, for SCHED_OTHER policy:
   $ xdpsock -i eth0 -t -N -z -T 1000 -b 16 -C 100000 -a

                      period     min        ave        max        cycle
   Cyclic TX          1000000    53507      75334      712642     6250

B) For SCHED_FIFO policy and schpri=50:
   $ xdpsock -i eth0 -t -N -z -T 1000 -b 16 -C 100000 -a -W FIFO -U 50

                      period     min        ave        max        cycle
   Cyclic TX          1000000    3699       24859      54397      6250
