User interface (xge_intf) module
--------------------------------

An additional core (provided under usr_intf) can be optionally plugged in between the user logic and the nfmac10g -- it makes user logic design simpler, at expense of increased latency, because: (i) it supports the user to apply back pressure on the Rx side (not possible with the nfmac10g alone) and (ii) the user can send outbound frames on the Tx interface with possible pauses in the AXI4-Stream transactions during a frame transmission (using the nfmac10g alone requires all the frame transactions to be back-to-back).
