This patch replaces C99-style flexible arrays in struct rte_flow_action_rss
and struct rte_flow_item_raw with standard pointers to the same data.

They proved difficult to use in the field (e.g. no possibility of static
initialization) and unsuitable for C++ applications.

Affected PMDs and examples are updated accordingly.

This breaks ABI compatibility for the following public functions:

- rte_flow_copy()
- rte_flow_create()
- rte_flow_query()
- rte_flow_validate()
