  Hash filter control has been implemented for i40e. It includes
getting/setting,
- global hash configurations (hash function type, and symmetric
  hash enable per flow type)
- symmetric hash enable per port

v5 changes:
* Integrated with filter API defined recently.

v6 changes:
* Implemented the mapping function to convert RSS offload types to
  Packet Classification Types, to isolate the real hardware
  specific things.
* Removed initialization of global registers in i40e PMD, as global
  registers shouldn't be initialized per port.
* Added more annotations to get code more understandable.
* Corrected annotation format for documenation.

v7 changes:
* Remove swap configurations, as it is not allowed by hardware design.
* Put symmetric hash per flow type and hash function type into
  'RTE_ETH_HASH_FILTER_GLOBAL_CONFIG', as they are controlling global
  registers which will affects all the ports of the same NIC.

Hi Helin,
Few nits from me.

As I said in offline discussion, we don't need these 2 lines above:
If i40e supports that flow type (bit in a mask is set), then we surely should be able to convert it to pctype.
