VIRTIO_F_IN_ORDER feature has been introduced recently, but the simple Tx path is not compliant with it as VIRTIO_F_IN_ORDER requires that chained descriptors are used sequentially, which is not the case in simple Tx path. This patch introduces 'simple_tx_support' devarg to unlock Tx simple path selection.
