[PATCH V3] app/testpmd: fix GENEVE parsing in csum forward mode

The csum FWD mode parses any received packet to set mbuf offloads for the
transmitting burst, mainly in the checksum/TSO areas.
In the case of a tunnel header, the csum FWD tries to detect known tunnels
by the standard definition using the header'sdata and fallback to check the
packet type in the mbuf to see if the Rx port driver already sign the
packet as a tunnel.
In the fallback case, the csum assumes the tunnel is VXLAN and parses the
tunnel as VXLAN.
When the GENEVE tunnel was added to the known tunnels in csum, its parsing
trial was wrongly located after the pkt type detection, causing the csum to
parse the GENEVE header as VXLAN when the Rx port set the tunnel packet
type.

Remove the fall back case to VxLan.
Log error of unrecognized tunnel if no tunnel was parsed successfully.

V2: Log error when an unrecognized tunnel is found (unknown UDP dst port), instead of parsing it as VxLan by default.
V3: revert unneeded changes (swapping parse_geneve & parse_vxlan).
