Initialize flow descriptor tunnel member during flow creation.
Prevent access to stale data and pointers when flow descriptor is
reallocated after release.
Fix flow index validation.
Fixes: e7bfa3596a0a ("net/mlx5: separate the flow handle resource")
Fixes: 8bb81f2649b1 ("net/mlx5: use thread specific flow workspace")
