Add support to parse flow for ntuple filter.
Can you please add more information to the commit log what does it mean to
support 'ntuple filter' in rte_flow? Like if matching packets dropped, etc..?
(From the code below I can see only queue action is supported...)
What are the supported patterns with "ntuple filter"?
And can be good to provide some sample rte_flow commands enabled with this
commit.
Above comments are for all filter types in this set.

Same comment with previous sets, can you please double check if all these
headers are required in this patch, and add them as required.

This function is to parse the rte_flow rule, but rte_flow is not introduced into
the driver yet.
All these filter parse functions, this and other ones, will not be functional
until rte_flow support is added. What do you think adding initial rte_flow
support first and add filters one by one being functional? This will enable
incrementally building the functionality and testing in each step.

Why not set rte flow error in this case?
