[2/3] examples/l3fwd: removed hash entry number

  hash_entry_number in l3fwd is not being used by both lpm and em lookup
method. Removed the global variable hash_entry_number and the function
that parses the hash-entry-number flag.

Fixes: e7e6dd643092 ("examples/l3fwd: support config file for EM")
Cc: stable@dpdk.org

The code was used to populate many EM route entries. It became obsolete after file
based config was added.
