According to current RTE API, port flow rules must not be kept
after port stop.

Testpmd did not flush port flow rules after `port stop' command was
called. As the result, after the port was restarted, it showed bogus
flow rules.

Fixes: ce8d561418d4 ("app/testpmd: add port configuration settings")

The rte_flow doc is now updated to make clear that flow rules
are not kept after port stop.
This testpmd patch should make clear that the need of flushing
is only for testpmd objects.
The change is postponed to DPDK 21.02.
