Dengdui Huang b83616ad92 ethdev: fix strict aliasing lead to link cannot be up
Fix a problem introduced by a compiler upgrade (from gcc10 to gcc12.3),
which will lead the hns3 NIC can't link up. The root cause is strict
aliasing violation in rte_eth_linkstatus_set() with hns3 driver, see
[1] for more details.

This commit use union to avoid such aliasing violation.
