ethtool: Introduce n-tuple filter programming support

This patchset enables the ethtool layer to program n-tuple filters to an underlying device. The idea is to allow capable hardware to have static rules applied that can assist steering flows into appropriate queues. Hardware that is known to support these types of filters today are ixgbe and niu.
