9783092022 app/flow-perf: allow fixed values for actions
Sometime the user want to have fixed values of
encap/decap or header modify for all flows.

This will introduce the ability to choose from
fixed or dynamic values by setting the flag in
config.h

To use different value for each flow:
config.h: #define FIXED_VALUES 0

To use single value for all flows:
config.h: #define FIXED_VALUES 1

b60fceb5ef app/flow-perf: add random mark values
Instead of having single id value, use up to 256
values, thus we make sure that all flows will not
use same mark action.

0c8f1f4ab9 app/flow-perf: support raw encap/decap actions
Introduce raw-encap and raw-decap actions.
The two actions are added in command line
options, and for the data to encap or decap
the user need to parse it within the command
line.

All values of raw-encap data is set to be fixed
values.

Usage example:

--raw-encap=ether,ipv4,udp,vxlan

b777d9d046 app/flow-perf: fix memory leak from RSS action
Currently, each call for add_rss_action will allocate
extra memory for rss_data, which will reflect bad results
on memory consumption for all flows, and will leads into
memory leak.

In this fix, it will check if it's allocated before
reallocating it.

ef9ae0cf57 app/flow-perf: support header modify actions
Introduce headers modify actions in the app.
All header modify actions will add different value
for each flow, to make sure each flow will create
and use it's own actions.

9001a863f4 app/flow-perf: support user order
The old design was using the bit mask to identify
items, action and attributes.

So it was all based on the order of the code itself,
to place the order of the actions, items & attributes
inside the flows. Such design will lead into many failures
when some PMD support order different than other PMD,
in the end the rules will fail to create. Also sometimes
the user needs to have one action before other actions
and vice versa, so using new design of arrays that
take user order into consideration make more sense.

After this patch, we start supporting inner items
and more than one instance of same action.

bf3688f1e8 app/flow-perf: add insertion rate calculation
Add insertion rate calculation feature into flow
performance application.

The application now provide the ability to test
insertion rate of specific rte_flow rule, by
stressing it to the NIC, and calculate the
insertion rate.

The application offers some options in the command
line, to configure which rule to apply.

After that the application will start producing
rules with same pattern but increasing the outer IP
source address by 1 each time, thus it will give
different flow each time, and all other items will
have open masks.

The current design have single core insertion rate.
