Currently, rte_eth_rss_conf supports configuring and querying
RSS hash functions, rss key and it's length, but not RSS hash
algorithm.
The structure ``rte_eth_rss_conf`` is extended by adding a new
field "algorithm". This represents the RSS algorithms to apply.
The following API will be affected:
- rte_eth_dev_configure
- rte_eth_dev_rss_hash_update
- rte_eth_dev_rss_hash_conf_get
If the value of "algorithm" used for configuration is a gibberish
value, report the error and return. Do the same for
rte_eth_dev_rss_hash_update and rte_eth_dev_configure.
To check whether the drivers report valid "algorithm", it is set
to default value before querying.

Rather than having every driver check the algorithm, why not handle this like
other features in DPDK (which may mean API/ABI changes).
Add a field rss_algo_capa which is bit field of available RSS functions.
Then the check for algorithm can be done in generic code. There a couple
of reserved fields that could be used.
+1 for add a field
But there are two ways to config rss: ethdev-ops, ethdev-rteflow-ops, should
distinguish them ? or just define for ethdev-ops ?
The rte_flow API does not distinguish RSS rule and FDIR rule,
the actual implementation of rss configuration depends on drivers.
I think if we had this "rss_algo_capa ", it can be just for ethdev-ops
for ethdev API level use.
It would mean updating all the drivers once with the capa field but
would provide way for application to know what fields are possible.
It has proved to be a problem in later ABI changes if a maximum value
is exposed. I.e don't expose RTE_ETH_HASH_FUNCTION_MAX.
