net: return offloaded stats as default and expose original sw stats

The problem we try to handle is about offloaded forwarded packets
which are not seen by kernel. Let me try to draw it:

    port1                       port2 (HW stats are counted here)
      \                          /
       \                        /
        \                      /
         --(A)---- ASIC --(B)--
                    |
                   (C)
                    |
                   CPU (SW stats are counted here)

Now we have couple of flows for TX and RX (direction does not matter here):

1) port1->A->ASIC->C->CPU

   For this flow, HW and SW stats are equal.

2) port1->A->ASIC->C->CPU->C->ASIC->B->port2

   For this flow, HW and SW stats are equal.

3) port1->A->ASIC->B->port2

   For this flow, SW stats are 0.

The purpose of this patchset is to provide facility for user to
find out the difference between flows 1+2 and 3. In other words, user
will be able to see the statistics for the slow-path (through kernel).

Also note that HW stats are what someone calls "accumulated" stats.
Every packet counted by SW is also counted by HW. Not the other way around.

As a default the accumulated stats (HW) will be exposed to user
so the userspace apps can react properly.

This patchset add the SW stats (flows 1+2) under offload related stats, so
in the future we can expose other offload related stat in a similar way.
