[PATCH v5 09/14] net/enetc: support stats reset for VF

The NETC SI-level hardware counters (SIROCT0, SIRFRM0, SITOCT0,
SITFRM0, SITDFCR) are read-only for a VF and cannot be directly
zeroed. No VSI-PSI command class exists for stats reset, and using
FLR/soft-reset to clear counters is not reliable due to a known
hardware erratum on some NETC platforms.

Implement stats_reset for the enetc4 VF PMD using a software
snapshot/delta approach: on stats_reset, the current HW counter
values are captured as a baseline in a new per-device
enetc4_vf_stats_saved struct. stats_get then reports the delta
(current_hw_value - saved_baseline), so counters appear to start
from zero after each reset call. Per-ring software Rx error
accumulators (ierrors) are zeroed directly on reset.

Register the stats_reset callback in both VF ops tables
(enetc4_vf_ops and enetc4_vf_ops_no_vsi_m) so the feature is
available regardless of whether the VSI messaging path is enabled.
