Whenever query statistics is issued for trap, devlink subsystem

the number of packets HW dropped and failed to report to the device driver,

In case if device driver didn't register callback for hard drop
statistics querying, 'dropped' field will be omitted and not filled.
Add trap_drop_counter_get callback implementation to the netdevsim.
Add new test cases for netdevsim, to test both the callback
functionality, as well as drop statistics alteration check.

Code looks fine to me, but for non-RFC submission (with actual hw
implementation), you probably want to split it into three patches:
devlink, netdevsim, selftest.
