 - Support nexthop route adding
   e.g.: "ip route add 5.5.5/24 via 1.1.1.2"

Limitations:

 - Only generic interfaces supported for router (no bridges or vlans)

Flags meaning:
  ip route add 5.5.5/24 nexthop via 2.2.2.2 nexthop via 2.2.2.3
  ip route show
  ...
  5.5.5.0/24 rt_offload
        nexthop via 2.2.2.2 dev sw1p31 weight 1 trap
        nexthop via 2.2.2.3 dev sw1p31 weight 1 trap
  ...
  # When you just add route - lpm entry became occupied
  # in HW ("rt_offload" flag), but related to nexthops neighbours
  # still not resolved ("trap" flag).
  #
  # After some time...
  ip route show
  ...
  5.5.5.0/24 rt_offload
        nexthop via 2.2.2.2 dev sw1p31 weight 1 offload
        nexthop via 2.2.2.3 dev sw1p31 weight 1 offload

  # entries occupied in HW too ("offload" flag)

Changes for v2:
* Add more reviewers in CC
* Check if route nexthop or direct with fib_nh_gw_family instead of fib_nh_scope
  This is needed after,
  747c14307214 ("ip: fix dflt addr selection for connected nexthop"),
  because direct route is now with the same scope as nexthop (RT_SCOPE_LINK)

Changes for v3:
* Resolve "unused functions" warnings, after
  patch ("net: marvell: prestera: Add heplers to interact ... "), and before
  patch ("net: marvell: prestera: Add neighbour cache accounting")

Changes for v4:
* Rebase to the latest master to resolve patch applying issues

Changes for v5:
* Repack structures to prevent holes
* Remove unused variables
* Fix misspeling issues

Changes for v6:
* Rebase on top of master
* Fix smatch warnings

Changes for v7:
* Rebase on top of master
* Refactor: use "fib_lookup" instead of "fib_new_table"+"fib_table_lookup",
  according to Paolo Abeni suggestion
* Refactor: use "rhashtable_free_and_destroy" instead of rhashtable
  walk, according to Paolo Abeni suggestion
