This patch introduces data structures and functions to alloc/free
VSIs. The driver represents a VSI using the ice_vsi structure.
Some noteworthy points about VSI allocation:
1) A VSI is allocated in the firmware using the "add VSI" admin queue
command (implemented as ice_aq_add_vsi). The firmware returns an
identifier for the allocated VSI. The VSI context is used to program
certain aspects (loopback, queue map, etc.) of the VSI's configuration.
2) A VSI is deleted using the "free VSI" admin queue command (implemented
as ice_aq_free_vsi).
3) The driver represents a VSI using struct ice_vsi. This is allocated
and initialized as part of the ice_vsi_alloc flow, and deallocated
as part of the ice_vsi_delete flow.
4) Once the VSI is created, a netdev is allocated and associated with it.
The VSI's ring and vector related data structures are also allocated
and initialized.
5) A VSI's queues can either be contiguous or scattered. To do this, the
driver maintains a bitmap (vsi->avail_txqs) which is kept in sync with
the firmware's VSI queue allocation imap. If the VSI can't get a
contiguous queue allocation, it will fallback to scatter. This is
implemented in ice_vsi_get_qs which is called as part of the VSI setup
flow. In the release flow, the VSI's queues are released and the bitmap
is updated to reflect this by ice_vsi_put_qs.

This patch continues the initialization flow as follows:
1) Allocate and initialize necessary fields (like vsi, num_alloc_vsi,
irq_tracker, etc) in the ice_pf instance.
2) Setup the miscellaneous interrupt handler. This also known as the
"other interrupt causes" (OIC) handler and is used to handle non
hotpath interrupts (like control queue events, link events,
exceptions, etc.
3) Implement a background task to process admin queue receive (ARQ)
events received by the driver.
