Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 1/2] devlink: add support for DEVLINK_CMD_REGION_NEW

Add support to request that a new snapshot be taken immediately for
a devlink region. Optionally allow specifying the snapshot id to use. If
no snapshot id is provided, the kernel will select a suitable id
automatically.

If the region does not support snapshots on demand, the command will
return an error indicating the operation is not supported.
