udp: align udp_encap_t_ to 2 cachelines

Browse Source 
Based on the comments in the struct, udp_encap_t_ is meant to span 2
cachelines. Due to the 64 bit alignment of dpo_id_t, the struct spanned
3 cachelines. This caused fetching ue_ip_proto to trigger an additional
cache miss. This patch rearranges the ordering of the struct fields
so that udp_encap_t_ only spans 2 cachelines as intended.

before:
(gdb) print (int)&((struct udp_encap_t_*)0)->cacheline1
$8 = 128

after:
(gdb) print (int)&((struct udp_encap_t_*)0)->cacheline1
$1 = 64
