net/mlx5: HWS, handle modify header actions dependency

Having adjacent accelerated modify header actions (so-called
pattern-argument actions) may result in inconsistent outcome.
These inconsistencies can take the form of writes to the same
field or a read coupled with a write to the same field. The
solution is to detect such dependencies and insert nops between
the offending actions.

The existing implementation had a few issues, which pretty much
required a complete rewrite of the code that handles these
dependencies.

In the new implementation we're doing the following:

* Checking any two adjacent actions for conflicts (not just
  odd-even pairs).
* Marking 'set' and 'add' action fields as destination, rather
  than source, for the purposes of checking for conflicts.
* Checking all types of actions ('add', 'set', 'copy') for
  dependencies.
* Managing offsets of the args in the buffer - copy the action
  args to the right place in the buffer.
* Checking that after inserting nops we're still within the number
  of supported actions - return an error otherwise.
