net/mlx5: Register mlx5 devices to auxiliary virtual bus



Create auxiliary devices under new virtual bus. This will replace
the custom-made mlx5 ->add()/->remove() interfaces and next patches
will fill the missing callback and remove the old interface logic.

The attachment of auxiliary drivers to the devices is possible in
1-to-1 manner only and it requires us to create device for every protocol,
so that device (module) will be able to connect to it.

System with 2 IB and 1 RoCE cards:
