Michael Baum May 23, 2023, 9:31 p.m. UTC
Add support for MPLS modify header using "RTE_FLOW_FIELD_MPLS" id.

Since MPLS heaser might appear more the one time in inner/outer/tunnel,
a new field was added to "rte_flow_action_modify_data" structure in
addition to "level" field.
The "tag_index" field is the index of the header inside encapsulation
level. It is used for modify multiple MPLS headers in same encapsulation
level.

This addition enables to modify multiple VLAN headers too, so the
description of "RTE_FLOW_FIELD_VLAN_XXXX" was updated.

Since the "tag_index" field is added, the "RTE_FLOW_FIELD_TAG" type
moves to use it for tag array instead of using "level" field.
Using "level" is still supported for backwards compatibility when
"tag_index" field is zero.
