bnxt_en: Add TC to hardware QoS queue mapping logic.
The current driver maps MQPRIO traffic classes directly 1:1 to the internal hardware queues (TC0 maps to hardware queue 0, etc). This direct mapping requires the internal hardware queues to be reconfigured from lossless to lossy and vice versa when necessary. This involves reconfiguring internal buffer thresholds which is disruptive and not always reliable. Implement a new scheme to map TCs to internal hardware queues by matching up their PFC requirements. This will eliminate the need to reconfigure a hardware queue internal buffers at run time. After remapping, the NIC is closed and opened for the new TC to hardware queues to take effect. This patch only adds the basic mapping logic.
