There have been long lasting confusion between net_buf and net_nbuf.
While the first is actually a buffer, the second one is not. It's a
network buffer descriptor. More precisely it provides meta data about a
network packet, and holds the chain of buffer fragments made of net_buf.
Thus renaming net_nbuf to net_pkt and all names around it as well
(function, Kconfig option, ..).
Though net_pkt if the new name, it still inherit its logic from net_buf.

This patch is the first of a serie that will separate completely net_pkt
from net_buf.

If we receive lot of packets, it might happen that we exhaust
all the DATA buffers in the system. This would prevent from
us sending anything to the network.
Change this by splitting the DATA buffer pool into RX and TX
parts. This way RX flooding cannot consume all DATA buffers
that needs to be sent.
