Add action RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_SWITCH_PORT, it can be used to redirect

A verbs would be better suited for an ACTION_TYPE. while ".._TYPE_PORT" is a nous. Probably ".._TYPE_REDIRECT" would better fit here.I agree it will be better to use verbs for action, so we can have TYPE_REDIRECT_TO_PORT/VF/PF..., But since we already have ACTION_TYPE_VF, ACTION_TYPE_PF ... Maybe it's better just to follow the same pattern?
hemmm, missed these ACTION_TYPE_VF/PF... Adrien, what do you think about these naming conventions?
