[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 3/6] ethdev: add API to get hairpin peer ports list

After hairpin queues are configured, in general, the application will
maintain the ports topology and even the queues configuration for
hairpin. But sometimes it will not.

If there is no hot-plug, it is easy to bind and unbind hairpin among
all the ports. The application can just connect or disconnect the
hairpin egress ports to / from all the probed ingress ports. Then
all the connections could be handled properly.

But with hot-plug / hot-unplug, one port could be probed and removed
dynamically. With two ports hairpin, all the connections from and to
this port should be handled after start(bind) or before stop(unbind).
It is necessary to know the hairpin topology with this port.

This API will return the ports list with the actual peer ports number
after configuration. Either peer RX or TX ports will be gotten with
this function call.

v3:
1. change the direction from bool to unsigned int type
2. add length to protect the array from getting corrupted
