Currently, upper-layer application could get queue state only through pointers such as dev->data->tx_queue_state[queue_id], this is not the recommended way to access it. So this patch add get queue state when call rte_eth_rx_queue_info_get and rte_eth_tx_queue_info_get API.
Note: After add queue_state field, the 'struct rte_eth_rxq_info' size remains 128B, and the 'struct rte_eth_txq_info' size remains 64B, so it could be ABI compatible.

Not sure we should add a note here for additions which do not break ABI compatibility. It may be confusing.
Hi Thomas,
What do about adding the documentation to "API Changes" section? Since 'rte_eth_rx_queue_info_get()'/'rte_eth_tx_queue_info_get()' can get 'queue_state' now, which may taken as API change.
