[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 1/2] examples/flow_classify: hooks for filters on tcp flags

v2 fixes:  typo fixes, get_tcp_flags returns -EINVAL

The rte_eth_ntuple_filter allows tcp_flags which can check for things
like
    #define RTE_TCP_CWR_FLAG 0x80 /**< Congestion Window Reduced */
    #define RTE_TCP_ECE_FLAG 0x40 /**< ECN-Echo */
    #define RTE_TCP_URG_FLAG 0x20 /**< Urgent Pointer field significant */
    #define RTE_TCP_ACK_FLAG 0x10 /**< Acknowledgment field significant */
    #define RTE_TCP_PSH_FLAG 0x08 /**< Push Function */
    #define RTE_TCP_RST_FLAG 0x04 /**< Reset the connection */
    #define RTE_TCP_SYN_FLAG 0x02 /**< Synchronize sequence numbers */
    #define RTE_TCP_FIN_FLAG 0x01 /**< No more data from sender */
but there are no existing examples that demonstrate how to use this
feature.

This patch extends the existing classification support to allow
an optional flags in the input file. The flags string can be any
concatenation of characters from {C, E, U, A, P, R, S, F} and
"*" indicates "don't care". These flags are set in the ntuple_filter and
are used to construct the tcp_spec and tcp_mask sent to the driver

The rte_acl_field_def is updated to use the (u8) tcp flag as lookup key.
Note that, as per
  https://doc.dpdk.org/guides/prog_guide/packet_classif_access_ctrl.html
this field MUST be allocated for 4 bytes, thus it has sizeof(uint32_t).

However, also note the XXX in this commit: additional updates are
needed to the rte_flow_classify_table_entry_add() so that it does
not ignore any key fields other than the 5-tuple.
