Thomas Monjalon b7ed955a20 ethdev: deprecate legacy filter API
As stated in the deprecation notice from December 2016,
"the legacy filter API, including rte_eth_dev_filter_supported(),
rte_eth_dev_filter_ctrl() as well as filter types MACVLAN, ETHERTYPE,
FLEXIBLE, SYN, NTUPLE, TUNNEL, FDIR, HASH and L2_TUNNEL, is superseded
by the generic flow API (rte_flow)".

After a long wait of more than two years, the legacy filter API
is marked as deprecated, while still tested with testpmd and
the tep_termination example.

The next step will be to announce a deadline for complete removal.
As preparation of the removal of rte_eth_ctrl.h,
RTE_ETH_FLOW_*, RTE_TUNNEL_TYPE_* and RTE_ETH_HASH_FUNCTION_* definitions
are moved to rte_ethdev.h and rte_flow.h.
