gve: add gve_ctrl_ops for gve initialization/teardown sequences

Driver initialization and teardown involve a number of control plane
operations that need to be defined for gve_probe to operate in both
mailbox and adminq modes.

[Severity: Medium]
Since this abstracts the RSS configuration for non-adminq modes, does the
ethtool configuration path also need to be updated to use this new abstraction?

Currently, gve_set_rxfh() in drivers/net/ethernet/google/gve/gve_ethtool.c
still calls the adminq-specific function directly:

drivers/net/ethernet/google/gve/gve_ethtool.c:gve_set_rxfh() {
	...
	if (!priv->rss_key_size || !priv->rss_lut_size)
		return -EOPNOTSUPP;

	err = gve_adminq_configure_rss(priv, rxfh);
	if (err) {
		NL_SET_ERR_MSG_MOD(extack, "Fail to configure RSS config");
		return err;
	}
	...
}

Could this cause issues when configuring RSS via ethtool on a device using
a different backend, since it bypasses ops->configure_rss()?
