ethdev: define default item masks in flow API

Leaving default pattern item mask values up for interpretation by PMDs is
an undefined behavior that applications might find difficult to use in the
wild. It also needlessly complicates PMD implementation.

This commit addresses this by defining consistent default masks for each
item type.
