[ovs-dev] [PATCH v2] netdev-tc-offloads: update stats properly on flow deletion

Currently, when an offloaded DP flow is deleted, the related stats
are unconditionally cleared. As a result the counters for the
originating open flow are corrupted.

This change addresses the issue updating the DP stats with the current
values provided by the flower APIs before deleting the tc filter, as
currently done by others DP providers.

Tested vs different OVS H/W offload devices, verifying that the open flow
stats are correct after the expiration of the related, H/W offloaded DP
flow.

Fixes: 30b6b047260b ("netdev-tc-offloads: Implement netdev flow del using tc interface")
