net/mlx5: E-Switch, Introduce APIs to enable egress acl forward-to-vport rule
By default, e-switch vport's egress acl just forward packets to its
counterpart NIC vport using existing egress acl table.
During port failover in bonding scenario where two VFs representors
are bonded, the egress acl forward-to-vport rule will be added to
the existing egress acl table of e-switch vport of passive/inactive
slave representor to forward packets to other NIC vport ie. the active
slave representor's NIC vport to handle egress "failover" traffic.
Enable egress acl and have APIs to create and destroy egress acl
forward-to-vport rule and group.
