Assign DEVLINK_PARAM_TYPE_* enum values to DEVLINK_VAR_ATTR_TYPE_* to
ensure the same values are used internally and in UAPI. Benefit from
that by removing the value translations.

Devlink param and health reporter fmsg use attributes with dynamic type
which is determined according to a different type. Currently used values
are NLA_*. The problem is, they are not part of UAPI. They may change
which would cause a break.
To make this future safe, introduce a enum that shadows NLA_* values in
it and is part of UAPI.
Also, this allows to possibly carry types that are unrelated to NLA_*
values.

Extend devlink_param *set function pointer to take extack as a param.
Sometimes it is needed to pass information to the end user from set
function. It is more proper to use for that netlink instead of passing
message to dmesg.

All remaining doit and dumpit netlink callback functions are going to be
used by generated split ops. They expect certain name format. Rename the
callback to be aligned with generated names.
