[PATCH net-next 6/6] ethtool: specify which header flags are supported per command

[Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>]

Perform header flags validation through the policy.

Only pause command supports ETHTOOL_FLAG_STATS. Create a separate
policy to be able to express that in policy dumps to user space.

Note that even though the core will validate the header policy,
it cannot record multiple layers of attributes and we have to
re-parse header sub-attrs. When doing so we could skip attribute
validation, or use most permissive policy.
