Subject: [PATCH v5 2/5] net/i40e: add QinQ filter create function

Add i40e_cloud_filter_qinq_create function, and call it from
i40e_dev_consistent_tunnel_filter_set function.
Replace the Outer IP filter with the QinQ filter.

QinQ allows multiple VLAN tags to be inserted into a single Ethernet frame. A
QinQ frame is a frame that has two VLAN 802.1Q headers.
802.1Q tunneling (QinQ) is a technique often used by Metro Ethernet
providers as a layer 2 VPN for customers.
