  The new member "tag_index" was added into the structure
"rte_flow_action_modify_data". It is the index of the header inside
encapsulation level. Both the "RTE_FLOW_FIELD_TAG" and
"MLX5_RTE_FLOW_FIELD_META_REG" types will use this member instead
of the "level", but the "level" will still be supported for the
compatibility.

In the validation stage, not only the "RTE_FLOW_FIELD_TAG" type, but
also the "MLX5_RTE_FLOW_FIELD_META_REG" needs to be checked.

In the meanwhile, lowering down the log priority will help to
prevent the flooding.

Mixing internal and API fields seems like something that could get
easily broken by changes to rte_flow.

Hi Stephen,
If I understand correctly, do you mean that the internal value and rte_flow API value may have some conflict?
All the MLX5 internal enum values start from INT_MIN. When treating it as a int value, it would not have the same value with rte_flow enums, unless all the 2^^32 are defined.
But yes, this has some risk since there is no limitation of the values in the rte_flow API.

We can assume it will never happen.
This is good to go.
