If the developer tries to use both features, he gets an ERROR log in
the two init path.
So whatever the order at runtime, we inform the developer (who did not
read/understand the rte_thread_register() documentation) that what he
is doing is unsupported.

A EAL flag is a stable API from the start, as there is nothing
describing how we can remove one.
So a new EAL flag for an experimental API/feature seems contradictory.

Going with a new features status API... I think it is beyond this series.

Thomas seems to suggest an automatic resolution when features conflict
happens.. ?

I'll send the v4, let's discuss it there if you want.
Thanks.
