[PATCH v3 1/7] ethdev: support report register names and filter

[Jie Hai]

This patch adds "filter" and "names" fields to "rte_dev_reg_info"
structure. Names of registers in data fields can be reported and
the registers can be filtered by their names.

The new API rte_eth_dev_get_reg_info_ext() is added to support
reporting names and filtering by names. And the original API
rte_eth_dev_get_reg_info() does not use the name and filter fields.
A local variable is used in rte_eth_dev_get_reg_info for
compatibility. If the drivers does not report the names, set them
to "offset_XXX".
