ethtool: Add helper routines to pass vf to rx_flow_spec 

The ring_cookie is 64 bits wide which is much larger than can be used
for actual queue index values. So provide some helper routines to
pack a VF index into the cookie. This is useful to steer packets to
a VF ring without having to know the queue layout of the device.

/* How rings are layed out when accessing virtual functions or
* offloaded queues is device specific. To allow users to do flow
* steering and specify these queues the ring cookie is partitioned
* into a 32bit queue index with an 8 bit virtual function id.
* This also leaves the 3bytes for further specifiers. It is possible
* future devices may support more than 256 virtual functions if
* devices start supporting PCIe w/ARI. However at the moment I
* do not know of any devices that support this so I do not reserve
* space for this at this time. If a future patch consumes the next
* byte it should be aware of this possiblity.
