MACsec support is planned for DPDK 22.11, which would
result in ABI breakage in some of the rte_security structures.
This patch is to give deprecation notice for the affected structures.

+* security: MACsec support is planned to be added in DPDK 22.11 which would
+  result in updates to structures ``rte_security_macsec_xform``,
+  ``rte_security_macsec_stats`` and security capability structure
+  ``rte_security_capability`` to accomodate MACsec capabilities.

 * metrics: The function ``rte_metrics_init`` will have a non-void return
   in order to notify errors instead of calling ``rte_exit``.
