When "flow configure" is issued multiple times on the same port,
port_flow_configure() allocates a new job_list via calloc() without
freeing the previous allocation, leaking it. The old pointer is
simply overwritten.

  testpmd> flow configure 0 queues_number 10 queues_size 256 ...
  testpmd> flow configure 0 queues_number 10 queues_size 256 ...

The patch fixes this by freeing the existing job_list before allocating
the replacement.
