meter: provide experimental alias for matured API
On v20.02 some meter APIs have been matured and symbols moved from EXPERIMENTAL to DPDK_20.0.1 block. This can break the applications that were using these mentioned APIs on v19.11. Although there is no modification on the APIs and the action is positive and matures the APIs, the affect can be negative to applications. This patch provides aliasing by duplicating the existing and versioned symbols as experimental. Since symbols moved from DPDK_20.0.1 to DPDK_21 block in the v20.05, the aliasing done between EXPERIMENTAL and DPDK_21. With DPDK_21 ABI (DPDK v20.11) all aliasing will be removed and only stable version of the APIs will remain.
