On Medford, licenses are required to enable RX and event cut through and to
disable RX batching. To avoid the need for the driver to make decisions based on
the licensing state, the MC_CMD_INIT_EVQ has been extended to allow us to leave
the decision to the firmware. If the adapter is licensed for low-latency use,
the firmware will choose the optimal settings for latency, otherwise it will use
the best settings for throughput.
For Huntington we still need to choose the settings ourselves.

This also adjusts the timer values used to match the Linux net
driver implementation:
a) non-zero time intervals should result in at least one quantum
b) timer load/reload values are only zero biased for Falcon/Siena

This simplifies setting an initial interrupt moderation value, and
avoids most calls to evx_ev_qmoderate from contexts where MCDI is
not allowed (MCDI is need for an EVQ timer workaround in a later patch).
