[v2] ethdev: support double precision RED queue weight

  RED queue weight is currently specified as a negated log of 2.

Add support for RED queue weight to be specified in double precision
and TM capability flags for double precision and negated log2
RED queue weight support.

Update the softnic PMD and testpmd for the new tm capability flags and
the struct rte_tm_red_params::wq_is_log2 flag.

v2:
* added RTE_STD_C11 for anonymnous union
* testpmd: added cman_wred_wq_log2/wq_dp_supported to "show port tm cap" cli command
* testpmd: set wq_is_log2 for WRED profiles added on testpmd cli

Cristian, 
I assume the testpmd changes will be upstreamed via the dpdk-next-qos tree.

Hi Nikhil,

Code looks good to me, but there is a problem: you are introducing new API without providing an implementation for it, and this is no longer allowed by the DPDK Tech Board [1][2].

Would it be possible to provide an implementation for this new API? A SW implementation in librte_sched/rte_red.[hc] or divers/net/softnic would be enough to tick this box.

Thanks,
Cristian
