mlxsw: spectrum: Add packet traps for BFD packets
Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) provides "low-overhead, short-duration detection of failures in the path between adjacent forwarding engines" (RFC 5880). This is accomplished by exchanging BFD packets between the two forwarding engines. Up until now these packets were trapped via the general local delivery (i.e., IP2ME) trap which also traps a lot of other packets that are not as time-sensitive as BFD packets. Expose dedicated traps for BFD packets so that user space could configure a dedicated policer for them.
