mlxsw: spectrum_router: Add a helper specifically for joining a LAG
Currently, joining a LAG very simply means that the LAG RIF should be joined by the subport representing untagged traffic. If the RIF does not exist, it does not have to be created: if the user wants there to be RIF for the LAG device, they are supposed to add an IP address, and they are supposed to do it after tha LAG becomes mlxsw upper. We can also assume that the LAG has no uppers, otherwise the enslavement is not allowed. In the future, these ordering dependencies should be removed. That means that joining LAG will be more complex operation, possibly involving a lazy RIF creation, and possibly joining / lazily creating RIFs for VLAN uppers of the LAG. It will be handy to have a dedicated function that handles all this. The new function mlxsw_sp_router_port_join_lag() is that.
