examples/multi_process: fix client crash with sparse ports

The mp_client crashes if run on Azure or any system where ethdev
ports are owned. In that case, the tx_buffer and tx_stats for the
real port were initialized correctly, but the wrong port was used.

For example if the server has Ports 3 and 5. Then calling
rte_eth_tx_buffer_flush on any other buffer will dereference null
because the tx buffer for that port was not allocated.

Also:
   - the flush code is common enough that it should not be marked
     unlikely
   - combine conditions to reduce indentation
   - avoid unnecessary if() if sent is zero.
