This patch adds support for allocating, deallocating and registering a new
device memory type, STEERING_SW_ICM. This memory can be allocated and
used by a privileged user for direct rule insertion and management of the
device's steering tables.
The type is provided by the user via the dedicated attribute in the
alloc_dm ioctl command.

This patch intoruduces a new mlx5_ib driver attribute to the DM allocation
method - the DM type.
In order to allow addition of new types in downstream patches this patch
also refactors the allocation, deallocation and registration handlers to
consider the requested type and perform the necessary actions according to
it.
Since not all future device memory types will be such that are mapped to
user memory, the mandatory page index output attribute is modified to be
optional.

Allow this only via mlx5 raw create flow API, legacy verbs are not
supported. To accommodate that, we add a new attribute to matcher creation
to indicate the type of flow table to be used.
MLX5_IB_ATTR_FLOW_MATCHER_FT_TYPE
With this new attribute MLX5_IB_ATTR_FLOW_MATCHER_FLOW_FLAGS is no longer
needed, we keep it for compatibility but at most only a single attribute can
be passed of the two.
When inserting a flow rule to the FDB we require that a DEVX FT is
provided as a destination, no other configuration is allowed.

Introduce async DEVX obj query API to get the command response back to
user space once it's ready without blocking when calling the firmware.
The event's data includes a header with some meta data then the firmware
output command data.
The header includes:
- The input 'wr_id' to let application recognizing the response.
The input FD attribute is used to have the event data ready on.
Downstream patches from this series will implement the file ops to let
application read it.

We expose new actions:
L2_TO_L2_TUNNEL - A generic encap from L2 to L2, the data passed should
be the encapsulating headers.
L3_TUNNEL_TO_L2 - Will do decap where the inner packet starts from L3,
the data should be mac or mac + vlan (14 or 18 bytes).
L2_TO_L3_TUNNEL - Will do encap where is L2 of the original packet will
not be included, the data should be the encapsulating
header.

For now, only add L2_TUNNEL_TO_L2 option. This will allow to perform
generic decap operation if the encapsulating protocol is L2 based, and the
inner packet is also L2 based. For example this can be used to decap VXLAN
packets.

Adding implementation in mlx5 driver to create and destroy action_xfrm
object. This merely call the accel layer.
A user may pass MLX5_IB_XFRM_FLAGS_REQUIRE_METADATA flag which states
that [s]he expects a metadata header to be added to the payload. This
header represents information regarding the transformation's state.
