net/mlx5e: resize non-default RSS indirection tables on channel change

When the channel count changes and the RQT size changes with it, a
problem arise for non-default RSS contexts. The driver-side indirection
table grows actual_table_size without filling the new entries; stale
entries from a prior larger configuration may be re-exposed, causing
mlx5e_calc_indir_rqns() to WARN on an out-of-range index.

Replace mlx5e_rss_params_indir_modify_actual_size() with
mlx5e_rss_ctx_resize(), which fills new entries by replicating
the existing pattern, matching what ethtool_rxfh_ctxs_resize() does
for the same case. And restrict the loop to non-default contexts.

Call ethtool_rxfh_ctxs_can_resize() before acquiring state_lock to
validate that all non-default contexts can be resized, and
ethtool_rxfh_ctxs_resize() after releasing it to fold or unfold their
indirection tables. Both functions acquire rss_lock internally and
cannot be called under state_lock. RTNL, held by all set_channels
callers, serialises context creation and deletion making the pre-lock
check safe.

Guard both ethtool calls on mlx5e_rx_res_rss_cnt() > 1: skip the
validation and resize when no non-default contexts exist. This
naturally covers representors and IPoIB, which share
mlx5e_ethtool_set_channels() but cannot have non-default RSS contexts.
