> Move hardware counter (HC) statistics from mana_port_context to

> on the same MANA VF. Previously, each network port queried
> hardware counters independently using MANA_QUERY_GF_STAT command
> (GF = Generic Function stats from GDMA hardware), resulting in
> redundant queries when multiple ports existed on the same device.
> 
> Isolate hardware counter stats by introducing mana_ethtool_hc_stats
> in mana_context and update the code to ensure all stats are properly
> reported via ethtool -S <interface>, maintaining consistency with
> previous behavior.
