net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: add support for credit based shaper
This commit adds support for credit-based shaping (802.1Qav) to several
MV88E6xxx chip families (6352, 6390, 6393). It implements the UAPI
structures allowing configuration of the idleslope and hicredit parameters
per queue.

[Severity: High]
The tc_cbs_qopt_offload UAPI structure specifies hicredit in bytes, but this
appears to pass the value directly to the hardware register without scaling.
If standard tooling passes a correct byte value, will this result in the
hardware allocating significantly more credits than intended due to hardware
block size multipliers?

[Severity: Medium]
If ops->port_set_scheduling_mode() fails, the rate register is cleared, but
the queue_bit is not removed from chip->ports[port].cbs_active_queues.
Could this cause the software state to incorrectly believe the queue is
still active, preventing the port from returning to standard scheduling
mode when other queues are later disabled?

[Severity: Medium]
This function sets the MV88E6390_PORT_QUEUE_CTL_UPDATE bit but returns
immediately. Should there be a wait or poll for the hardware to clear
this bit before returning, to prevent sequential configuration changes
from silently dropping updates while the hardware is still busy?
