Allow zero rx/tx queues to be passed to rte_eth_dev_configure(). This
way PF might be used only for configuration purpose when no receive
and/or transmit functionality is needed.
Rationale:
in SRIOV mode PF use first free VF to RX/TX (at least ixgbe based NICs).
For example: if using 82599EB based NIC and VF count is 16, 32 or 64 all
recources are assigned to VFs so PF might be used only for configuration
purpose.
