qede: use ethtool_rx_flow_rule() to remove duplicated parser code
The qede driver supports for ethtool_rx_flow_spec and flower, both
codebases look very similar.
This patch uses the ethtool_rx_flow_rule() infrastructure to remove the
duplicated ethtool_rx_flow_spec parser and consolidate ACL offload
support around the flow_rule infrastructure.
Furthermore, more code can be consolidated by merging
qede_add_cls_rule() and qede_add_tc_flower_fltr(), these two functions
also look very similar.
This driver currently provides simple ACL support, such as 5-tuple
matching, drop policy and queue to CPU.
Drivers that support more features can benefit from this infrastructure
to save even more redundant codebase.
