net/*/base: allow experimental APIs in base of avf and qede

  This functionality was missed while adding new drivers to
the meson build.

Fixes: 1d75caf81474 ("net/avf: add meson support")
Fixes: 30d3d0168301 ("net/qede: add in meson build")

Is there any call from base code to experimental APIs? What do you think adding
this when we need it, since I have feeling that this may not be needed.

The patch itself does not enable the experimental APIs, it only
adds the ability to enable them in the future. It's actually
pretty hard for the person that not much familiar with meson to
find out why your code provides deprecation warnings. I spent
few hours trying to make it work but failed. After that Bruce found
that 'base' code parts ignores 'allow_experimental_apis' flag and
prepared the patch. Thank you, Bruce!
This patch possibly will save a few hours for someone like me, who
will try to enable experimental APIs for avf and qede drivers.

And I already need avf part for my patch set with nanosleep
based delay:

+1, I think it should be added, as it basically just is allowing
passthrough of the flag to the base drivers.

Taking into account that there is already a need,

Applied to dpdk-next-net/master, thanks.
