[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 4/4] ethdev: check support for rx_queue_count and descriptor_done fns

The functions rte_eth_rx_queue_count and rte_eth_descriptor_done are
supported by very few PMDs. Therefore, it is best to check for support
for the functions in the ethdev library, so as to avoid crashes
at run-time if the application goes to use those APIs. The performance
impact of this change should be very small as this is a predictable
branch in the function.
