devlink: Improve the port attributes description
Current PF number description is vague, sometimes interpreted as some PF index. VF number in the PCI specification starts at 1; however in kernel, it starts at 0 for representor model. Improve the description of devlink port attributes PF, VF and SF numbers with these details.
