[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v5 3/4] ethdev: redesign link speed config API

[Marc Sune <marcdevel@gmail.com>]

This patch redesigns the API to set the link speed/s configure
for an ethernet port. Specifically:

- it allows to define a set of advertised speeds for
  auto-negociation.
- it allows to disable link auto-negociation (single fixed speed).
- default: auto-negociate all supported speeds.

Other changes:

* Added utility MACROs ETH_SPEED_NUM_XXX with the numeric
  values of all supported link speeds, in Mbps.
* Converted link_speed to uint32_t to accomodate 100G speeds
  (bug).
* Added autoneg flag in struct rte_eth_link to indicate if
  link speed was a result of auto-negociation or was fixed
  by configuration.
* Added utility function to convert numeric speeds to bitmap
  fields.
* Adapted testpmd to the new link API.
