lib/idxd: change max idxd completions processed

This patch fixes issue # 2809, by changing the max
completions processed per poll. A new parameter called
IDXD_MAX_COMPLETIONS is used to set maximum completions
processed per poll to 128 because we observed performance
degradation on a system with 16 NVMe SSDs at a queue depth
of 64 per SSD. When using DSA to compute the data digest,
the target application can issue upto 1024(16x64) request
to compute data digest concurrently to DSA. Limiting the
maximum completions processed per poll to 32 using
DESC_PER_BATCH cause up to 43% IOPS degradation.
Use IDXD_MAX_COMPLETIONS to control the number of
completions proccessed per poll in spdk_idxd_process_event
based on your workload. For example, if your application
is issuing 1000s of concurrent request to DSA you might
want to set IDXD_MAX_COMPLETIONS to a value higher than
128.
