[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1335 bytes --]

Fix two issues found when writing PMD unit tests for HW ptype and
L4 checksum offload:

   - The version field in the IPv6 header was being set to zero,
     which prevented hardware from recognizing it as IPv6. The
     IP version field is now set to six.
   - The payload_len field was being initialized using host byte
     order, which (among other things) resulted in incorrect L4
     checksum computation. The payload_len field is now set using
     network (big-endian) byte order.
