[PATCH v2] ethdev: introduce dump API

Tue Feb 8 03:45:15 CET 2022


Added the ethdev dump API which provides querying private info from ethdev.
There exists many private properties in different PMD drivers, such as
adapter state, Rx/Tx func algorithm in hns3 PMD. The information of these
properties is important for debug. As the information is private, the new
API is introduced.
