Dariusz Sosnowski 8e82ebe265 net/mlx5: document E-Switch limitations with HWS
This patch adds the following limitations to the mlx5 PMD guide:

- With HW Steering and E-Switch enabled, transfer proxy port must
  be started before any port representor.
- With HW Steering and E-Switch enabled, all representors
  must be stopped before transfer proxy port is stopped.

Documentation of mlx5 PMD's implementations of
rte_eth_dev_start() and rte_eth_dev_stop() is updated accordingly:

- rte_eth_dev_start() returns (-EAGAIN) when transfer proxy port
  cannot be started.
- rte_eth_dev_stop() returns (-EBUSY) when port representor
  cannot be stopped.
