Add a new state NAPI_STATE_THREADED_BUSY_POLL to the NAPI state enum to
enable and disable threaded busy polling.
When threaded busy polling is enabled for a NAPI, enable
NAPI_STATE_THREADED also.
When the threaded NAPI is scheduled, set NAPI_STATE_IN_BUSY_POLL to
signal napi_complete_done not to rearm interrupts.
Whenever NAPI_STATE_THREADED_BUSY_POLL is unset, the
NAPI_STATE_IN_BUSY_POLL will be unset, napi_complete_done unsets the
NAPI_STATE_SCHED_THREADED bit also, which in turn will make the kthread
go to sleep.

Instead of using '0' and '1' for napi threaded state use an enum with
'disabled' and 'enabled' states.

A net device has a threaded sysctl that can be used to enable threaded
NAPI polling on all of the NAPI contexts under that device. Allow
enabling threaded NAPI polling at individual NAPI level using netlink.
Extend the netlink operation `napi-set` and allow setting the threaded
attribute of a NAPI. This will enable the threaded polling on a NAPI
context.
Add a test in `nl_netdev.py` that verifies various cases of threaded
NAPI being set at NAPI and at device level.
