net/mlx5: Add support for devlink reload limit no reset
Add support for devlink reload action fw_activate with reload limit no_reset which does firmware live patching, updating the firmware image without reset, no downtime and no configuration lose. The driver checks if the firmware is capable of handling the pending firmware changes as a live patch. If it is then it triggers firmware live patching flow.
