This patch introduces new ethdev generic API for Traffic Metering and
Policing (MTR), which is yet another standard RX offload for Ethernet
devices.
Similar to rte_flow and rte_tm APIs, the configuration of MTR objects is
done in their own namespace (rte_mtr) within the librte_ether library.
Main features:
1. Traffic metering: determine the color for the current packet (green,
yellow, red) based on history maintained by the MTR object. Supported
algorithms: srTCM (RFC 2697), trTCM (RFC 2698 and RFC 4115).
2. Policing (per meter output color actions): re-color the packet (keep
or change the meter output color) or drop the packet.
3. Statistics
4. Capability API
