client: use pcap_dispatch to avoid extra pkt buffer copy
pcap_next() allows use of returned buffer until next time the same API
is called. In order to do so, it internally calls pcap_dispatch() with
an internal handler (in the case of linux pcapint_oneshot_linux()).
That handler basically memcpy()s the pkt buffer obtained in the
pcap_dispatch callback into a temporary static buffer which is then
returned.
We don't need any of that here, and by using pcap_dispatch() directly
(as recommended in pcapint_oneshot_linux() function documentation) we
can skip an extra memcpy() of each packet buffer captured.
Furthermore, it will allow us processing multiple packets from the
captured queue (RA_SOCKET+mmap implementation in linux) in one poll
iteration if several packets have been captured. This will be done in a
follow-up patch.
pcap handle is marked non-blocking to allow polling from it without
ending up blocked. Applying filter is moved beforehand, as seen in
libpcap capturetest example.
