netdevsim: implement peer queue flow control
Add flow control mechanism between paired netdevsim devices to stop the
TX queue during high traffic scenarios. When a receive queue becomes
congested (approaching NSIM_RING_SIZE limit), the corresponding transmit
queue on the peer device is stopped using netif_subqueue_try_stop().
Once the receive queue has sufficient capacity again, the peer's
transmit queue is resumed with netif_tx_wake_queue().
Key changes:
* Add nsim_stop_peer_tx_queue() to pause peer TX when RX queue is full
* Add nsim_start_peer_tx_queue() to resume peer TX when RX queue drains
* Implement queue mapping validation to ensure TX/RX queue count match
* Wake all queues during device unlinking to prevent stuck queues
* Use RCU protection when accessing peer device references
* wake the queues when changing the queue numbers
* Remove IFF_NO_QUEUE given it will enqueue packets now
The flow control only activates when devices have matching TX/RX queue
counts to ensure proper queue mapping.
