Allow to setup timers only for EAL (lcore) threads (__lcore_id < MAX_LCORE_ID).
E.g. – dynamically created thread will be able to reset/stop timer for lcore thread,
but it will be not allowed to setup timer for itself or another non-lcore thread.
rte_timer_manage() for non-lcore thread would simply do nothing and return straightway.

Signed-off-by: Cunming Liang <cunming.liang@intel.com>
---
 v6 changes:
   use 'RTE_MAX_LCORE' to check the EAL thread with valid lcore_id.
   use 'LCORE_ID_ANY' for any unspecified lcore_id assignment.

 v5 changes:
   add assert in rte_timer_manage
   remove duplicate check in timer_set_config_state
