nfp: interpret extended FW load result codes
To enable easier FW distribution NFP can now automatically select between FW stored on the flash and loaded from the kernel. If FW loading policy is set to auto it will compare the versions of FW from the host and from the flash and load the newer one. If FW type doesn't match (e.g. one advanced application vs another) the FW from the host takes precedence, unless one of them is the basic NIC firmware, in which case the non-basic-NIC FW is selected. This automatic selection mechanism requires we inform user what the verdict was. Print a message to the logs explaining the decision and the reason.
