sfc: create VEB vswitch and vport above default firmware setup
Adds functions to allocate and free vswitches and vports; vadaptors are automatically allocated and freed when TX/RX queues are initialised and finalised. This vswitching structure is only created if the firmware supports it, so a check that full-featured firmware is running is performed first. If the MC resets, the vswitching infrastructure will need to be recreated, so mark the "must_probe_vswitching" flag when an MC reboot is detected. Don't try to create a vswitch if vf-count=0 This allocation of vswitches and vports does not currently support configuring VLAN tags, but that can be added in a future change.
