[v3,04/26] config: add separate defines for max Rx and Tx queues
Checks
Commit Message
Rather than having a single define for maximum queues per ethernet port,
we can set the max values for Rx queues and Tx queue independently. This
allows future memory saving for apps which only need large numbers of Rx
queues or only large numbers of Tx queues.

The Rx Queues != Tx Queues is not a mainstream scenario (at least from most of DPDK user as I know),
rename it (not separate Rx/Tx) with eth meaning and make it as a compile option is enough.
