mlxsw: spectrum_router: Maintain a hash table of CRIFs
CRIFs are objects that mlxsw maintains for netdevices that may not have an associated RIF (i.e. they may not have been instantiated in the ASIC), but if indeed they do not, it is quite possible they will in the future. These netdevices are candidate RIFs, hence CRIFs. Netdevices for which CRIFs are created include e.g. bridges, LAGs, or front panel ports. The idea is that next hops would be kept at CRIFs, not RIFs, and thus it would be easier to offload and unoffload the entities that have been added before the RIF was created. In this patch, add the code for low-level CRIF maintenance: create and destroy, and keep in a table keyed by the netdevice pointer for easy recall.
