In the devargs syntax for device representors, it is possible to add
several devices at once: -w dbdf,representor=[0-3]
It will become a more frequent case when introducing wildcards
and ranges in the new devargs syntax.

If a devargs string is provided for probing, and updated with a bigger
range for a new probing, then we do not want it to fail because
part of this range was already probed previously.

On the opposite, we could require rte_eal_hotplug_add() to try
to add all matching devices, and fail if one is already probed.

That's why a new parameter is added to specify if the function
must fail or not when trying to add an already probed device.

This patch contains only the change in the function itself as RFC.

This idea was presented at Dublin during the "hotplug talk".
