We can query the number of queues (and everything else you need) in the
tool, similar to what we do in
testing/selftests/drivers/net/hw/ncdevmem.c, take a look. But if it's
too complicated, maybe at least print these commands on startup and tell
the user to run them.

The reason I'm asking is that I hope that we eventually can run this
tool from (automatic) testing/selftests/drivers/net/hw testsuite to
make sure the metadata stuff keeps working.
