Test lpm6_perf_autotest was hitting a stack overflow on Windows
with both MSVC and Clang.

The fix is to move some of the data from the stack to the heap.

While I don't think we need to use the "rte_" versions of allocation, this
is still an ok fix - and I see that in v1 regular malloc was used.

The reviewers had different opinions on which allocator function
should be used, that's why it was changed. Thanks for being flexible on this.

As I mentioned earlier, I think it's better to use the memory allocated from hugepages here since we are measuring performance.

With either calloc or rte_calloc used.
