bpf: offload: move offload device validation out to the drivers
With TC shared block changes we can't depend on correct netdev pointer being available in cls_bpf. Move the device validation to the driver. Core will only make sure that offloaded programs are always attached in the driver (or in HW by the driver). We trust that drivers which implement offload callbacks will perform necessary checks. Moving the checks to the driver is generally a useful thing, in practice the check should be against a switchdev instance, not a netdev, given that most ASICs will probably allow using the same program on many ports.
