net: microchip: sparx5: Adding basic rule management in VCAP API
This provides most of the rule handling needed to add a new rule to a VCAP. To add a rule a client must follow these steps: 1) Allocate a new rule (provide an id or get one automatically assigned) 2) Add keys to the rule 3) Add actions to the rule 4) Optionally set a keyset on the rule 5) Optionally set an actionset on the rule 6) Validate the rule (this will add keyset and actionset if not specified in the previous steps) 7) Add the rule (if the validation was successful) 8) Free the rule instance (a copy has been added to the VCAP) The validation step will fail if there are no keysets with the requested keys, or there are no actionsets with the requested actions. The validation will also fail if the keyset is not configured for the port for the requested protocol).
