Adds a devlink command for getting & setting device configuration parameters, and enumerates a bunch of those parameters as devlink attributes. Also introduces an attribute that can be set by a driver to indicate that the config change doesn't take effect until the next restart (as in the case of the bnxt driver changes in this patchset, for which all the configuration changes affect NVM only, and aren't loaded until the next restart.) bnxt driver patches make use of these new devlink cmds/attributes.
