net/sfc: support concept of switch domains/ports
A later patch will add support for RTE flow action PORT_ID
to MAE backend. The driver has to ensure that such actions
refer to RTE ethdev instances deployed on top of the same
physical device. Also, the driver needs a means to find
sibling RTE ethdev instances when parsing such actions.
In order to solve these problems, add a switch infrastructure
which allocates switch domains based on persistence of device
serial number string across switch ports included in a domain.
Explain mapping between RTE switch port IDs and MAE endpoints.
