My initial plan was to put all parsers under their respective names, in
the similar way as I did for caps: $ rdma dev show mlx5_4 caps

So for large dumps, I'm going to use that technique again and maybe print summary as a default.
For example, for gids, we can print utilization as a summary while whole
table if someone really wants it: $ rdma link show mlx5_4/1 gids <index>

Something like that.

Thanks
