[PATCH 1/2] ethdev: parsing multiple representor devargs string

Adding support for parsing multiple representor devargs strings
passed to a PCI BDF. There may be scenario where port representors
for various PFs or VFs under PFs are required and all these are
representor ports shall be backed by single pci device. In such
case port representors can be created using devargs string:
<PCI BDF>,representor=pf[0-1],representor=pf2vf[1,2-3],representor=[4-5]
