[dpdk-dev] [RFC 1/3] ethdev: add packet filter flow and new behavior switch to fdir

Add a new packet filter flow that allows filtering a packet based on
matching ingress port, ethertype, vlan, ip, and tcp/udp fields, i.e.
matching based on any or all fields at the same time.

Add the ability to provide masks for fields in flow to allow range of
values.

Add a new vlan flow containing inner and outer vlan to match. Add tos
and proto fields that can be matched for ipv4_flow.

Add a new behavior switch.

Add the ability to provide behavior arguments to allow insert/deletion
of matched fields in the flow.  Useful when rewriting matched fields
with new values.  Adds arguments for port, mac, vlan, and nat.
Ex: allows to provide new ip and port addresses to rewrite the fields
of packets matching a filter rule before NAT'ing.
