[Chaoyong He]

This patch series try to enhance the bond framework to support the
offload feature better:
* Add new API to make the member port can access some information of the
  bond port which belongs.
* Add new API to get the result of whether bond port is created by the
  member port.
* Add two command line argument to control if enable member port
  notification and dedicated queue features.
* Add logic to support add ports which share the same PCI address into
  bond port.
* Also modify the testpmd application to test the new APIs and logics
  added by this patch series.

v2:
* Fix compile error on github-robot by removing the redundancy function
  declaration in the header file.
v3:
* Use the hole in the structure for the new added flag data field.
v4:
* Drop two commits not necessary for this series.
* Modify some logic as the review comments from reviewers.
v5:
* Add a new 'rte_eth_bond_flow.h' header file.
* Add the patches of NFP PMD as the example of support bond flow
  offload.
v6:
* Try to solve the CI build error.
