Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5: fix flow create failure with GENEVE options match

For non template API on top of HWS,
geneve options were missing a parser and therefor it failed.
In template API it geneve options is configured by the user
using mlx5 set/apply tlv_options commands.

To support hybrid mode, if no parser exists,
added inner configuration of geneve parser, else,
in debug mode, check if the geneve option needed exist in
current parser configured.
In release mode, assume the option exist in current configured parser.

Updated needed configuration for geneve options in doc.
