net: sched: introduce terse dump flag
Add new TCA_DUMP_FLAGS attribute and use it in cls API to request terse filter output from classifiers with TCA_DUMP_FLAGS_TERSE flag. This option is intended to be used to improve performance of TC filter dump when userland only needs to obtain stats and not the whole classifier/action data. Extend struct tcf_proto_ops with new terse_dump() callback that must be defined by supporting classifier implementations. Support of the options in specific classifiers and actions is implemented in following patches in the series.
