A netdev provider, especially a PMD provider (like netdev DPDK) might not be able to change some of its parameters (such as MTU, or number of queues) without stopping everything and restarting. This commit introduces a mechanism that allows a netdev provider to request a restart (netdev_request_reconfigure()). The upper layer can be notified via netdev_wait_reconf_required() and netdev_is_reconf_required(). After closing all the rxqs the upper layer can finally call netdev_reconfigure(), to make sure that the new configuration is in place. This will be used by next commit to reconfigure rx and tx queues in netdev-dpdk.
