When capturing packets into a PCAP file, DPDK currently uses
microseconds for the timestamp. But libpcap supports interpreting
tv_usec as nanoseconds depending on the file timestamp precision.

To support this, use PCAP_TSTAMP_PRECISION_NANO when creating the
empty PCAP file as specified by PCAP_OPEN_DEAD(3PCAP) and implement
nanosecond timeval addition. This also ensures that the precision
reported by capinfos is nanoseconds (9).
