Subject: [PATCH net-next v3 0/3] net: core: Unify dstats with tstats and
 lstats, implement generic dstats collection

The struct pcpu_dstats ("dstats") has a few variations from the other
two stats types (struct pcpu_sw_netstats and struct pcpu_lstats), and
doesn't have generic helpers for collecting the per-cpu stats into a
struct rtnl_link_stats64.

This change unifies dstats with the other types, adds a collection
implementation to the core, and updates the single driver (vrf) to use
this generic implementation.

Of course, questions/comments/etc are most welcome!

v3:
- rather than exposing helpers, perform dstat collection implicitly when
  type == NETDEV_PCPU_STAT_DSTAT
- Link to v2:
  https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240605-dstats-v2-0-7fae03f813f3@codeconstruct.com.au

v2:
- use correct percpu var in dev_fetch_dstats
- use correct accessor in vfr rx drop accounting
- v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240605-dstats-v1-0-1024396e1670@codeconstruct.com.au
