The kernel netdev promiscuous or all multicast mode could be enabled

the kernel state and DPDK's expected state

Add mlx5_os_get_promisc() and mlx5_os_get_allmulti() to query the
current kernel state via netlink. On port start, compare the kernel
state with DPDK's state and sync if they differ.
On Windows, these getters always return false as there seems to be no
API for getting the states.
