Fix xstats functions, rte_eth_xstats_get_names_by_id()
and rte_eth_xstats_get_by_id(), in current implementation
ethdev level reads all xstat values and filters out
the ones requested by the application. This behavior doesn't
benefit from PMD ops and doesn't provide the benefit the
API was created in the first place for. APIs are also unnecessarily
complicated. Both APIs have different returns for the same params.
In this fix, instead of reading all the stats and finding the
requested value, drivers can provide ops to get selected xstats.
API no longer crashes with certain params,
rte_eth_get_by_id returned seg fault with
"ids = NULL && values != NULL && n<max”
rte_eth_get_names_by_id returned seg fault with
"ids = NULL && values != NULL && n=0”
These now return max number of stats available, matching the other API.
rte_eth_get_by_id returned seg fault with
"ids != NULL && values = NULL && n<max”
This now returns -22,(EINVAL).
Standardized variable/parameter names between the 2 APIs.
Overall code complexity reduced.
