mlxsw: spectrum_span: Add support for mirroring towards CPU port
The Spectrum-2 and Spectrum-3 ASICs are able to mirror packets towards
the CPU. These packets are then trapped like any other packet, but with
a special packet trap and additional metadata such as why the packet was
mirrored.
The ability to mirror packets towards the CPU will be utilized by a
subsequent patch set that will mirror packets that were dropped by the
ASIC for various buffer-related reasons, such as tail-drop and
early-drop.
Add mirroring towards the CPU as a new SPAN agent type and re-use the
functions that mirror to a physical port where possible.
