[V3 0/2] net: extend VXLAN header to support more extensions

[Gavin Li <gavinl@nvidia.com>]

In this patch series, all the VXLAN extension header will be merged with
VXLAN as union if the overlapped field has different format among
protocols. The existing VXLAN-GPE will be marked as deprecated and new
extensions of VXLAN should be added to VXLAN instead of a new RTE item.
