exposed when building DPDK with Link Time Optimization (LTO) enabled.

- net/mlx5: use __rte_assume() instead of runtime bounds check
per Dariusz Sosnowski's review, avoiding any overhead on the
flow creation fast path

common/cnxk: replace variable length state array
common/cnxk: replace variable length array
common/cnxk: re-enable vla warnings
