The function devl_rate_nodes_destroy is documented to "Unset parent for
all rate objects". However, it was only calling the driver-specific
`rate_leaf_parent_set` or `rate_node_parent_set` ops and decrementing
the parent's refcount, without actually setting the
`devlink_rate->parent` pointer to NULL.
This leaves a dangling pointer in the `devlink_rate` struct, which cause
refcount error in netdevsim[1] and mlx5[2]. In addition, this is
inconsistent with the behavior of `devlink_nl_rate_parent_node_set`,
where the parent pointer is correctly cleared.
This patch fixes the issue by explicitly setting `devlink_rate->parent`
to NULL after notifying the driver, thus fulfilling the function's
documented behavior for all rate objects.

devlink_rate_node_get_by_name() and devlink_rate_nodes_destroy() have a
couple of unnecessary static variables for iterating over devlink rates.
This could lead to races/corruption/unhappiness if two concurrent
operations execute the same function.
Remove 'static' from both. It's amazing this was missed for 4+ years.
While at it, I confirmed there are no more examples of this mistake in
net/ with 1, 2 or 3 levels of indentation.

Introduce support for specifying relative bandwidth shares between
traffic classes (TC) in the devlink-rate API. This new option allows
users to allocate bandwidth across multiple traffic classes in a
single command.
This feature provides a more granular control over traffic management,
especially for scenarios requiring Enhanced Transmission Selection.
Users can now define a relative bandwidth share for each traffic class.
For example, assigning share values of 20 to TC0 (TCP/UDP) and 80 to TC5
(RoCE) will result in TC0 receiving 20% and TC5 receiving 80% of the
total bandwidth. The actual percentage each class receives depends on
the ratio of its share value to the sum of all shares.
Example:
DEV=pci/0000:08:00.0
$ devlink port function rate add $DEV/vfs_group tx_share 10Gbit \
tx_max 50Gbit tc-bw 0:20 1:0 2:0 3:0 4:0 5:80 6:0 7:0
$ devlink port function rate set $DEV/vfs_group \
tc-bw 0:20 1:0 2:0 3:0 4:0 5:20 6:60 7:0
Example usage with ynl:
./tools/net/ynl/cli.py --spec Documentation/netlink/specs/devlink.yaml \
--do rate-set --json '{
"bus-name": "pci",
"dev-name": "0000:08:00.0",
