[PATCH 2/2] net/ice: fix shaper profile reference count tracking

Currently, when a TM node is added with a shaper profile assigned,
the profile's reference count is not incremented. Equally, when a node
is deleted, the count is not decremented. As a result, the guard that
blocks deletion of an in-use profile never triggers, allowing the profile
to be freed while nodes still hold a pointer to it.
Fix by maintaining the reference count correctly when nodes take or
release a shaper profile, so that deletion of an in-use profile is
properly rejected.
Fixes: 8c481c3bb65b ("net/ice: support queue and queue group bandwidth limit")
