Brenden Blanco 86af8b4191 Add sample for adding simple drop program to link
Add a sample program that only drops packets at the BPF_PROG_TYPE_XDP_RX
hook of a link. With the drop-only program, observed single core rate is
~20Mpps.

Other tests were run, for instance without the dropcnt increment or
without reading from the packet header, the packet rate was mostly
unchanged.
