devlink: Add API to register packet trap groups
Currently, packet trap groups are implicitly registered by drivers upon
packet trap registration. When the traps are registered, each is
associated with a group and the group is created by devlink, if it does
not exist already.
This makes it difficult for drivers to pass additional attributes for
the groups.
Therefore, as a preparation for future patches that require passing
additional group attributes, add an API to explicitly register /
unregister these groups.
Next patches will convert existing drivers to use this API.
