net/mlx5e: do not create xdp_redirect for non-uplink rep

XDP and XDP socket require extra SQ/RQ/CQs. Most of these resources
are dynamically created: no XDP program loaded, no resources are
created. One exception is the SQ/CQ created for XDP_REDRIECT, used
for other netdev to forward packet to mlx5 for transmit. The patch
disables creation of SQ and CQ used for egress XDP_REDIRECT, by
checking whether ndo_xdp_xmit is set or not.

For netdev without XDP support such as non-uplink representor, this
saves around 0.35MB of memory, per representor netdevice per channel.
