Provide the capability to update the hash key, hash types

entries are fixed to 40B and 128 entries respectively. This
is done in order to simplify the design, but may be
revisited later as the Virtio spec provides this
flexibility.
Note that only VIRTIO_NET_F_RSS support is implemented,
VIRTIO_NET_F_HASH_REPORT, which would enable reporting the
packet RSS hash calculated by the device into mbuf.rss, is
not yet supported.
Regarding the default RSS configuration, it has been
chosen to use the default Intel ixgbe key as default key,
and default RETA is a simple modulo between the hash and
the number of Rx queues.

RSS may be configured on rte_eth_dev_configure() stage
using eth_conf->rx_adv_conf.rss_conf. It looks like the
patch does not handle it.
Good catch, I indeed missed that part.
I'll post a v3 including its support.
Thanks,
Maxime
