Add `rte_eth_dev_set_supported_ptypes` function that will allow the
application to inform the PMD the packet types it is interested in.
Based on the ptypes set PMDs can optimize their Rx path.

-If application doesn’t want any ptype information it can call
`rte_eth_dev_set_supported_ptypes(ethdev_id, RTE_PTYPE_UNKNOWN, NULL, 0)`
and PMD may skip packet type processing and set rte_mbuf::packet_type to
RTE_PTYPE_UNKNOWN.

-If application doesn’t call `rte_eth_dev_set_supported_ptypes` PMD can
return `rte_mbuf::packet_type` with `rte_eth_dev_get_supported_ptypes`.

-If application is interested only in L2/L3 layer, it can inform the PMD
to update `rte_mbuf::packet_type` with L2/L3 ptype by calling
`rte_eth_dev_set_supported_ptypes(ethdev_id,
		RTE_PTYPE_L2_MASK | RTE_PTYPE_L3_MASK, NULL, 0)`.

Looks good except one thing below.

It heavily relies on current MASK values - 4 bits in each mask one by one.
IMO const array of all supported masks is less evil here. Plus it should
be checked that no set bits remain when all masks are removed.
