examples/multi_process: make RSS and checksum optional

The default values of rx mq_mode and rx offloads for port
will cause symmetric_mp startup failure if the port do not
support rss or csum. This patch makes the app to reconfigure
the NIC without them. Only quit the app if the second
reconfiguration fails.
