Return unsupported error message when application tries to
modify flex item field.

Validation of packet modifications actions for SW Steering checked
if either source or destination field of MODIFY_FIELD action
was a flex item.
When DEC_TTL action is used, DEC_TTL action does not have any
action configuration and dereferencing source or destination field
is invalid, so validation of source and destination field types
should be moved to MODIFY_FIELD specific validation function, then
field types are validated if and only if action type is MODIFY_FIELD.
