====================
net/mlx5: Preparations for nested E-switch

This series by Shay has two intertwined goals. The first is to remove
the compile-time MLX5_MAX_PORTS sizing from the LAG and eswitch/TC
datapaths so that structures scale with the actual number of ports/peers
rather than a fixed maximum. The second is a set of small,
self-contained fixes that prepare the eswitch and LAG code for a VF/SF
acting as a nested e-switch manager - a mode new FW will allow, where a
VF/SF has its own eswitch and the VFs/SFs can be grouped by MPESW.

No functional change is intended for existing configurations.
