[PATCH v3 00/29] Add common flow attr/action parsing infrastructure to Intel PMD's

This patchset introduces common flow attr/action checking infrastructure to
some Intel PMD's (IXGBE, I40E, IAVF, and ICE). The aim is to reduce code
duplication, simplify implementation of new parsers/verification of existing
ones, and make action/attr handling more consistent across drivers.

v3:
- Rebase on latest next-net-intel
- Added 4 new commits that have to do with not using `rte_eth_dev` in rte_flow
- Converted the remaining commits to use adapter structures everywhere
- Minor fixes in how return values are handled
- Fixed incorrect check in i40e RSS validation

v2:
- Rebase on latest main
- Now depends on series 37585 [1]
