RDMA/mlx5: Add support for flow tag to raw create flow
A user can provide a hint which will be attached to the packet and written to the CQE on receive. This can be used as a way to offload operations into the HW, for example parsing a packet which is a tunneled packet, and if so, pass 0x1 as the hint. The software can use that hint to decapsulate the packet and parse only the inner headers thus saving CPU cycles.
