After further investigation, I will not add an rte_flow_table_delete() API.

The tables are stored in an array. Deleting a table will leave an empty entry 
in the array.
The  table_create API just adds tables to the array until the array is full, it 
does handle empty entries in the array.  Note, the ip_pipeline code does not 
have a table_delete API either.
The ret_flow_classifier_free() API frees all the tables in the classifier.
