net/mlx5: E-switch, refactor eswitch mode change

Browse source

The E-switch mode was previously updated before removing and re-adding the
IB device, which could cause a temporary mismatch between the E-switch mode
and the IB device configuration.

To prevent this discrepancy, the IB device is now removed first, then
the E-switch mode is updated, and finally, the IB device is re-added.
This sequence ensures consistent alignment between the E-switch mode and
the IB device whenever the mode changes, regardless of the new mode value.
