Add skip_hw and skip_sw flags for user to control whether
offload action to hardware.

Also we add hw_count to show how many hardwares accept to offload
the action.

Change man page to describe the usage of skip_sw and skip_hw flag.

An example to add and query action as below.

$ tc actions add action police rate 1mbit burst 100k index 100 skip_sw

$ tc -s -d actions list action police
total acts 1
     action order 0:  police 0x64 rate 1Mbit burst 100Kb mtu 2Kb action reclassify overhead 0b linklayer ethernet
     ref 1 bind 0  installed 2 sec used 2 sec
     Action statistics:
     Sent 0 bytes 0 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0)
     backlog 0b 0p requeues 0
     skip_sw in_hw in_hw_count 1
     used_hw_stats delayed
