net: dsa: hellcreek: Constify struct devlink_region_ops and struct hellcreek_fdb_entry

'struct devlink_region_ops' and 'struct hellcreek_fdb_entry' are not
modified in this driver.

Constifying these structures moves some data to a read-only section, so
increases overall security, especially when the structure holds some
function pointers.

On a x86_64, with allmodconfig:
Before:
======
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  55320   19216     320   74856   12468 drivers/net/dsa/hirschmann/hellcreek.o

After:
=====
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  55960   18576     320   74856   12468 drivers/net/dsa/hirschmann/hellcreek.o
