Expose the new flow steering API and remove the old
one.
Few changes are required:
1. The Ethernet flow steering follows the existing implementation, but uses
the new steering API. The old flow steering implementation is removed.
2. Move the E-switch FDB management to use the new API.
3. When driver is loaded call to mlx5_init_fs which initialize
the flow steering tree structure, open namespaces for NIC receive
and for E-switch FDB.
4. Call to mlx5_cleanup_fs when the driver is unloaded.

Enabling E-Switch SRIOV for nvfs+1 vports.
Create E-Switch FDB for L2 UC/MC mac steering between VFs/PF and
external vport (Uplink).
FDB contains forwarding rules such as:
UC MAC0 -> vport0(PF).
UC MAC1 -> vport1.
UC MAC2 -> vport2.
MC MACX -> vport0, vport2, Uplink.
MC MACY -> vport1, Uplink.
For unmatched traffic FDB has the following default rules:
Unmached Traffic (src vport != Uplink) -> Uplink.
Unmached Traffic (src vport == Uplink) -> vport0(PF).
FDB rules population:
Each NIC vport (VF) will notify E-Switch manager of its UC/MC vport
context changes via modify vport context command, which will be
translated to an event that will be handled by E-Switch manager (PF)
which will update FDB table accordingly.

This patch contains the resource handling files:
- flow_table.c: This file contains the code to handle the low level API
to configure hardware flow table. It is separated from
the flow_table_en.c, because it will be used in the
future by Raw Ethernet QP in mlx5_ib too.
- en_flow_table.[ch]: Ethernet flow steering handling. The flow table
object contain a mapping between flow specs and TIRs.
This mechanism will be used also to configure e-switch
in the future, when SR-IOV support will be added.
- transobj.[ch] - Low level functions to create/modify/destroy the
transport objects: RQ/SQ/TIR/TIS
- vport.[ch] - Handle attributes of a virtual port (vPort) in the
embedded switch. Currently this switch is a passthrough, until SR-IOV
support will be added.
