mlxsw: hwmon: Provide optimization for QSFP modules number detection
Use new field "num_of_modules" of MGPIR register for "hwmon" interface
in order to get the number of modules supported by system directly from
the system configuration, instead of getting it from port to module
mapping info.
Reading this info through MGPIR register is faster and does not depend
on possible dynamic re-configuration of ports.
In case of port dynamic re-configuration some modules can logically
"disappear" as a result of port split and un-spilt operations, which
can cause missing of some modules, in case this info is taken from port
to module mapping info.
