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

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.

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.
