net: microchip: sparx5: Add/delete rules in sorted order

Browse source

This adds a sorting criteria to rule insertion and deletion.

The criteria is (in the listed order):

- Rule size (largest size first)
- User (based on an enumerated user value)
- Priority (highest priority first, aka lowest value)

When a rule is deleted the other rules may need to be moved to fill the gap
to use the available VCAP address space in the best possible way.
