net/mlx5e: TC, Add sampler object API
In order to offload sample action, HW introduces sampler object. The sampler object samples packets according to the provided sample ratio. Sampled packets are duplicated. One copy is processed by a termination table, named the sample table, which sends the packet up to software. The second copy is processed by the default table. Instantiate sampler object. Re-use identical sampler object for the same sample ratio, sample table and default table as a prestep for offloading tc sample actions.
