fbnic supports pause frames. When pause frames are enabled presumably
user expects lossless operation from the NIC. Make sure we configure
RDE (Rx DMA Engine) to DROP_NEVER mode to avoid discards due to delays
in fetching Rx descriptors from the host.
While at it enable DROP_NEVER when NIC only has a single queue
configured. In this case the NIC acts as a FIFO so there's no risk
of head-of-line blocking other queues by making RDE wait. If pause
is disabled this just moves the packet loss from the DMA engine to
the Rx buffer.
