netdev: FCoE: Add new ndo_get_fcoe_hbainfo() call

This adds a new ndo_get_fcoe_hbainfo() call in
net_device_ops for FCoE protocol stack.

If supported by the underlying device, the FCoE protocol
stack will call this to get device specific information
from the underlying device.
This information will then be utilized by the FCoE protocol
stack to register Fiber Channel HBA attributes with the
Fiber Channel Management Service via Fabric Device
Management Interface (FDMI) as per the T11 FC-GS
specification.

Changes in v2:
- As per comments from David Miller aligning the parameters
of the ndo_get_fcoe_hbainfo()
