rS323170: if: Add ioctls to get RSS key and hash type/function.
Summary

It will be needed by hn(4) to configure its RSS key and hash type/function in the transparent VF mode in order to match VF's RSS settings. The description of the transparent VF mode and the RSS hash value issue are here:
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=322299
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=322485

These are generic enough to promise two independent IOCs instead of abusing SIOCGDRVSPEC.

Setting RSS key and hash type/function is a different story, which probably requires more discussion.

Two drivers are modified to support these two IOCs:
