[PATCH 1/3] ethdev: fix telemetry xstats return null with some PMDs

Currently the telemetry xstats uses rte_eth_xstats_get() to retrieve
the number of elements. But the value to be returned when the parameter
'xstats' is NULL is not specified, some PMDs (eg. hns3/ipn3ke/mvpp2/
axgbe) return zero while others return the required number of elements.

This patch uses rte_eth_xstats_get_names() instead of
rte_eth_xstats_get() because it returns the required number of elements
when the parameter 'xstats_name' is NULL.
