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.

Once the THREADED napi is disabled, the napi kthread should also be
stopped. Keeping the kthread intact after disabling THREADED napi makes
the PID of this kthread show up in the output of netlink 'napi-get' and
ps -ef output.
The is discussed in the patch below:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250502191548.559cc416@kernel.org
NAPI kthread should stop only if,
- There are no pending napi poll scheduled for this thread.
- There are no new napi poll scheduled for this thread while it has
stopped.
- The ____napi_schedule can correctly fallback to the softirq for napi
polling.
Since napi_schedule_prep provides mutual exclusion over STATE_SCHED bit,
it is safe to unset the STATE_THREADED when SCHED_THREADED is set or the
SCHED bit is not set. SCHED_THREADED being set means that SCHED is
already set and the kthread owns this napi.
To disable threaded napi, unset STATE_THREADED bit safely if
SCHED_THREADED is set or SCHED is unset. Once STATE_THREADED is unset
safely then wait for the kthread to unset the SCHED_THREADED bit so it
safe to stop the kthread.
Add a new test in nl_netdev to verify this behaviour.

Resetting queues while the device is down should be legal.
Allow it, test it. Ideally we'd test this with a real device
supporting devmem but I don't have access to such devices.

Test listing netdevsim NAPIs before and after a single queue
has been reset (and NAPIs re-added).
Start from resetting the middle queue because edge cases
(first / last) may actually be less likely to trigger bugs.

Test cases need to exit with non-zero status if they failed,
we currently don't do that:
# KTAP version 1
# 1..3

# # Check failed 1 != 2
# not ok 1 ping.test_v4

^^^^
It's a bit tempting to make the exit part of ksft_run(),
but that only works well for very trivial setups. We can
revisit this later, if people forget to call ksft_exit().
