From: Bruce Richardson <bruce.richardson@intel.com>

When including the rte_ether.h header in applications with warnings
enabled, a warning was given because of the assumption of 2-byte alignment
of ethernet addresses when processing them.

.../include/rte_ether.h:149:2: warning: converting a packed ‘const
  struct ether_addr’ pointer (alignment 1) to a ‘unaligned_uint16_t’
  {aka ‘const short unsigned int’} pointer (alignment 2) may result in
  an unaligned pointer value [-Waddress-of-packed-member]
149 |  const unaligned_uint16_t *ea_words = (const unaligned_uint16_t *)ea;
    |  ^~~~~

Since ethernet addresses should always be aligned on a two-byte boundary,
we can just inform the compiler of this assumption to remove the warnings
and allow us to always access the addresses using 16-bit operations.
