devlink: Extend devlink rate API with traffic classes bandwidth management

Introduce support for specifying relative bandwidth shares between
traffic classes (TC) in the devlink-rate API. This new option allows
users to allocate bandwidth across multiple traffic classes in a
single command.

This feature provides a more granular control over traffic management,
especially for scenarios requiring Enhanced Transmission Selection.

Users can now define a relative bandwidth share for each traffic class.
For example, assigning share values of 20 to TC0 (TCP/UDP) and 80 to TC5
(RoCE) will result in TC0 receiving 20% and TC5 receiving 80% of the
total bandwidth. The actual percentage each class receives depends on
the ratio of its share value to the sum of all shares.

Example:
DEV=pci/0000:08:00.0

$ devlink port function rate add $DEV/vfs_group tx_share 10Gbit \
  tx_max 50Gbit tc-bw 0:20 1:0 2:0 3:0 4:0 5:80 6:0 7:0

$ devlink port function rate set $DEV/vfs_group \
  tc-bw 0:20 1:0 2:0 3:0 4:0 5:20 6:60 7:0

Example usage with ynl:

./tools/net/ynl/cli.py --spec Documentation/netlink/specs/devlink.yaml \
  --do rate-set --json '{
  "bus-name": "pci",
  "dev-name": "0000:08:00.0",
  "port-index": 1,
  "rate-tc-bws": [
    {"rate-tc-index": 0, "rate-tc-bw": 50},
    {"rate-tc-index": 1, "rate-tc-bw": 50},
    {"rate-tc-index": 2, "rate-tc-bw": 0},
    {"rate-tc-index": 3, "rate-tc-bw": 0},
    {"rate-tc-index": 4, "rate-tc-bw": 0},
    {"rate-tc-index": 5, "rate-tc-bw": 0},
    {"rate-tc-index": 6, "rate-tc-bw": 0},
    {"rate-tc-index": 7, "rate-tc-bw": 0}
  ]
}'

./tools/net/ynl/cli.py --spec Documentation/netlink/specs/devlink.yaml \
  --do rate-get --json '{
  "bus-name": "pci",
  "dev-name": "0000:08:00.0",
  "port-index": 1
}'

output for rate-get:
{'bus-name': 'pci',
 'dev-name': '0000:08:00.0',
 'port-index': 1,
 'rate-tc-bws': [{'rate-tc-bw': 50, 'rate-tc-index': 0},

                 {'rate-tc-bw': 0, 'rate-tc-index': 4},
                 {'rate-tc-bw': 0, 'rate-tc-index': 5},
                 {'rate-tc-bw': 0, 'rate-tc-index': 6},
                 {'rate-tc-bw': 0, 'rate-tc-index': 7}],
