net/mlx5e: Don't refresh TIRs when updating representor SQs

Refreshing TIRs is done in order to update the TIRs with the current
state of SQs in the transport domain, so that the TIRs can filter out
undesired self-loopback packets based on the source SQ of the packet.

Representor TIRs will only receive packets that originate from their
associated vport, due to dedicated steering, and therefore will never
receive self-loopback packets, whose source vport will be the vport of
the E-Switch manager, and therefore not the vport associated with the
representor. As such, it is not necessary to refresh the representors'
TIRs, since self-loopback packets can't reach them.

Since representors only exist in switchdev mode, and there is no
scenario in which a representor will exist in the transport domain
alongside a non-representor, it is not necessary to refresh the
transport domain's TIRs upon changing the state of a representor's
queues. Therefore, do not refresh TIRs upon such a change. Achieve
this by adding an update_rx callback to the mlx5e_profile, which
refreshes TIRs for non-representors and does nothing for representors,
and replace instances of mlx5e_refresh_tirs() upon changing the state
of the queues with update_rx().
