Adrien Mazarguil 323f811a4a ethdev: add isolated mode to flow API
Isolated mode can be requested by applications on individual ports to avoid
ingress traffic outside of the flow rules they define.

Besides making ingress more deterministic, it allows PMDs to safely reuse
resources otherwise assigned to handle the remaining traffic, such as
global RSS configuration settings, VLAN filters, MAC address entries,
legacy filter API rules and so on in order to expand the set of possible
flow rule types.

To minimize code complexity, PMDs implementing this mode may provide
partial (or even no) support for flow rules when not enabled (e.g. no
priorities, no RSS action). Applications written to use the flow API are
therefore encouraged to enable it.

Once effective, leaving isolated mode may not be possible depending on PMD
implementation.

/**
* Generic flow operations structure implemented and returned by PMDs.
*
* To implement this API, PMDs must handle the RTE_ETH_FILTER_GENERIC filter
* type in their .filter_ctrl callback function (struct eth_dev_ops) as well
* as the RTE_ETH_FILTER_GET filter operation.
*
* If successful, this operation must result in a pointer to a PMD-specific
* struct rte_flow_ops written to the argument address as described below:
*
* \code
*
* // PMD filter_ctrl callback
*
* static const struct rte_flow_ops pmd_flow_ops = { ... };
*
* switch (filter_type) {
* case RTE_ETH_FILTER_GENERIC:
* if (filter_op != RTE_ETH_FILTER_GET)
* return -EINVAL;
* *(const void **)arg = &pmd_flow_ops;
* return 0;
* }
*
* \endcode
*
* See also rte_flow_ops_get().
*
* These callback functions are not supposed to be used by applications
* directly, which must rely on the API defined in rte_flow.h.
*
* Public-facing wrapper functions perform a few consistency checks so that
* unimplemented (i.e. NULL) callbacks simply return -ENOTSUP. These
* callbacks otherwise only differ by their first argument (with port ID
* already resolved to a pointer to struct rte_eth_dev).
