[PATCH] net/mlx5: reduce the counter pool name length

[Bing Zhao]

The name size of a rte_ring is RTE_MEMZONE_NAMESIZE with the value 32
by default. When creating a HWS counter pool cache, the final string
format was "RG_MLX5_HWS_CNT_POOL_%u_cache/%u" and it could support
less than 1000 variants. For example, if the first %u representing
port id is 100 and it will take all the available characters then the
second %u for queues will be discarded. If there was more than one
rule creation queue, the rte_ring could not be created.

By reducing the fixed character number and using hexadecimal format,
the issue can be overcome with an assumption that not all the integer
fields for queue index is used.

Fixes: 4d368e1da3a4 ("net/mlx5: support flow counter action for HWS")
