This increase due to the usage of cmdline in dpdk applications
as config commands such as testpmd do for rte_flow rules creation.
The current size of buffer is not enough to fill
many cases of rte_flow commands validation/creation.
rte_flow now can have outer items, inner items, modify
actions, meta data actions, duplicate action, fate action and
more in one single rte flow, thus 512 char will not be enough
to validate such rte flow rules.
Such change shouldn't affect the memory since the cmdline
reading again using the same buffer.
