dummy driver was extended with VF-related netdev APIs for testing
SR-IOV-related software. netdevsim did not exist back then.
Implement SR-IOV functionality in netdevsim. Notable difference
is that since netdevsim has no module parameters, we will actually
create a device with sriov_numvfs attribute for each netdev.
The zero MAC address is accepted as some HW use it to mean any
address is allowed. Link state is also now validated.

Add support for loading programs for netdevsim devices and
expose the related information via DebugFS. Both offload
of XDP and cls_bpf programs is supported.

To be able to run selftests without any hardware required we
need a software model. The model can also serve as an example
implementation for those implementing actual HW offloads.
The dummy driver have previously been extended to test SR-IOV,
but the general consensus seems to be against adding further
features to it.
Add a new driver for purposes of software modelling only.
eBPF and SR-IOV will be added here shortly, others are invited
to further extend the driver with their offload models.
