[PATCH] net/mlx5: fix HWS sample action table leak on quit

[Maayan Kashani <mkashani@nvidia.com>]

Destroy the composite dest_array mirror action before releasing its
clone destinations. Releasing a JUMP clone can drop the last group
table reference while the dest_array still points at that table,
leaving the firmware flow table objects leaked on port close.
