[PATCH V2 mlx5-next 01/10] net/core: Introduce master_xmit_slave_get

Add new ndo to get the xmit slave of master device.
User should release the slave when it's not longer needed.
When slave selection method is based on hash, then the user can ask to
get the xmit slave assume all the slaves can transmit by setting the
LAG_FLAGS_HASH_ALL_SLAVES bit in the flags argument.
