nexthop: Allow reporting activity of nexthop buckets
The kernel periodically checks the idle time of nexthop buckets to determine if they are idle and can be re-populated with a new nexthop. When the resilient nexthop group is offloaded to hardware, the kernel will not see activity on nexthop buckets unless it is reported from hardware. Add a function that can be periodically called by device drivers to report activity on nexthop buckets after querying it from the underlying device.
