i40e: Enable VF to negotiate number of allocated queues
Currently the PF allocates a default number of queues for each VF and cannot be changed. This patch enables the VF to request a different number of queues allocated to it. This patch also adds a new virtchnl op and capability flag to facilitate this negotiation. After the PF receives a request message, it will set a requested number of queues for that VF. Then when the VF resets, its VSI will get a new number of queues allocated to it. This is a best effort request and since we only allocate a guaranteed default number, if the VF tries to ask for more than the guaranteed number, there may not be enough in HW to accommodate it unless other queues for other VFs are freed. It should also be noted decreasing the number queues allocated to a VF to below the default will NOT enable the allocation of more than 32 VFs per PF and will not free queues guaranteed to each VF by default.
