Whenever installed BlueField FW was too old and it did not support
flex parser, mlx5 PMD reported an unrelated error
on flex item creation.
For example it reported that:
unsupported header length field mode (FIXED)
This was caused by lack of check for flex parser support.
This patch adds missing capability check and
adds proper error reporting.
Limitations of flex item described in PMD docs are also adjusted.
