Target release for removal of the legacy API will be defined once most
PMDs have switched to rte_flow.
* i40e: The default flexible payload configuration which extracts the first 16
bytes of the payload for RSS will be deprecated starting from 18.02. If
required the previous behavior can be configured using existing flow
director APIs. There is no ABI/API break. This change will just remove a
global configuration setting and require explicit configuration.
* librte_meter: The API will change to accommodate configuration profiles.
Most of the API functions will have an additional opaque parameter.
