[RFC v2] ethdev: introduce ethdev dump API

Wed Jan 12 03:40:08 CET 2022


Added the ethdev dump API which provides functions for query private info
from device. There exists many private properties in different PMD drivers,
such as adapter state, Rx/Tx func algorithm in hns3 PMD. The information of
these properties is important for debug. As the information is private,
the new API is introduced.
