From: Moshe Shemesh <redacted>

Add a helper mlx5_esw_get_host_pf_info() to retrieve host PF data from
the query_esw_functions command output, so callers no longer need to
parse the layout to obtain the required information.

Convert all callers of mlx5_esw_query_functions() to use the new helper,
preparing for upcoming support of the new op_mod that returns data in
the network_function_params layout.
