Implement "mdd-auto-reset-vf" priv-flag to handle Tx and Rx MDD events for VFs.
This flag is also used in other network adapters like ICE.

Usage:
- "on"  - The problematic VF will be automatically reset
          if a malformed descriptor is detected.
- "off" - The problematic VF will be disabled.

In cases where a VF sends malformed packets classified as malicious, it can
cause the Tx queue to freeze, rendering it unusable for several minutes. When
an MDD event occurs, this new implementation allows for a graceful VF reset to
quickly restore operational state.

Currently, VF iqueues are disabled if an MDD event occurs. This patch adds the
ability to reset the VF if a Tx or Rx MDD event occurs. It also includes MDD
event logging throttling to avoid dmesg pollution and unifies the format of
Tx and Rx MDD messages.

Note: Standard message rate limiting functions like dev_info_ratelimited()
do not meet our requirements. Custom rate limiting is implemented,
please see the code for details.

Could you add info on this to the i40e Documentation/

This string is largely duplicated. Seems is_tx could adjust Tx/Rx only?

This needs to check for, and report, Tx counts?

"off");

This could use the new str_on_off() string helper.
