Changing pool type from static to dynamic causes reinterpretation of
threshold values. They therefore need to be saved before pool type is
changed, then the pool type can be changed, and then the new values need
to be set up.
For that reason, set cannot subsume save, because it would be saving the
wrong thing, with possibly a nonsensical value, and restore would then fail
to restore the nonsensical value.
Thus extract a _save() from each of the relevant _set()'s. This way it is
possible to save everything up front, then to tweak it, and then restore in
the required order.

Currently the SW-datapath ETS selftests use "ip link" stats to obtain the
number of packets that went through a given band. mlxsw then uses ethtool
per-priority counters.
Instead, change both to use qdiscs. In SW datapath this is the obvious
choice, and now that mlxsw offloads FIFO, this should work on the offloaded
datapath as well. This has the effect of verifying that the FIFO offload
works.

This tests the newly-added ETS Qdisc. It runs two to three streams of
traffic, each with a different priority. ETS Qdisc is supposed to allocate
bandwidth according to the DRR algorithm and given weights. After running
the traffic for a while, counters are compared for each stream to check
that the expected ratio is in fact observed.
In order for the DRR process to kick in, a traffic bottleneck must exist in
the first place. In slow path, such bottleneck can be implemented by
wrapping the ETS Qdisc inside a TBF or other shaper. This might however
make the configuration unoffloadable. Instead, on HW datapath, the
bottleneck would be set up by lowering port speed and configuring shared
buffer suitably.
Therefore the test is structured as a core component that implements the
testing, with two wrapper scripts that implement the details of slow path
resp. fast path configuration.
