net/hns3: select Tx prepare based on Tx offload

Tx prepare should be called only when necessary to reduce the impact on
performance.

For partial TX offload, users need to call rte_eth_tx_prepare() to
invoke the tx_prepare callback of PMDs. In this callback, the PMDs
adjust the packet based on the offloading used by the user. (e.g. For
some PMDs, pseudo-headers need to be calculated when the TX cksum is
offloaded.)

However, for the users, they cannot grasp all the hardware and PMDs
characteristics. As a result, users cannot decide when they need to
actually call tx_prepare. Therefore, we should assume that the user
calls rte_eth_tx_prepare() when using any Tx offloading to ensure that
related functions work properly. Whether packets need to be adjusted
should be determined by PMDs. They can make judgments in the
dev_configure or queue_setup phase. When the related function is not
used, the pointer of tx_prepare should be set to NULL to reduce the
performance loss caused by invoking rte_eth_tx_repare().

In this patch, if tx_prepare is not required for the offloading used by
the users, the tx_prepare pointer will be set to NULL.
