Move the GET_FIELD and SET_FIELD macros to vas.h as VAS and other
users of VAS, including NX-842 can use those macros.

There is a lot of related code between the VAS/NX kernel drivers
and skiboot. For consistency switch the order of parameters in
SET_FIELD to match the order in skiboot.

This has no business being in a uapi header for VAS.

Put it in asm/vas.h if you must.

Personally I really dislike these sort of macros because they completely
obscure what the final value should end up being, and it's the final
value you'll see when you're debugging it.
+	ccw = SET_FIELD(CCW_CT, ccw, nx842_ct);
+	ccw = SET_FIELD(CCW_CI_842, ccw, 0); /* use 0 for hw auto-selection */
+	ccw = SET_FIELD(CCW_FC_842, ccw, fc);
eg. that could also be written:

       ccw = (nx842_ct << 16) | (fc & 7);
