How about add rte flow get capablity APIs

Hi, Ori and Ferruh

  Currently, the rte flow APIs lack of get capability APIs, upper-application

could not get the device capability unless look doc or code or even test it.

  Maybe it's a good idea to add the get capability like traffic manager

framework, what do you think?

Not providing capability was a design decision, because it may not be possible to provide capability information correctly.

The preferred method is 'rte_flow_validate()'.
Application should call 'rte_flow_validate()' to decide if a rule can be created or not, and take an action accordingly.
