Add support for devlink reload action fw_activation_no_reset which does
firmware live patching, updating the firmware image without reset.
The driver checks if the firmware is capable of handling the pending
firmware changes as a live patch. If it is then it triggers firmware
live patching flow.

v2 -> v3:
- Replace fw_live_patch action by fw_activate_no_reset
v1 -> v2:
- Have fw_live_patch action instead of level
