net_sched: sch_fq: enable use of hrtimer slack

Add a new attribute to control the fq qdisc hrtimer slack.

Default is set to 10 usec.

When/if packets are throttled, fq set up an hrtimer that can
lead to one interrupt per packet in the throttled queue.

By using a timer slack, we allow better use of timer interrupts,
by giving them a chance to call multiple timer callbacks
at each hardware interrupt.

Also, giving a slack allows FQ to dequeue batches of packets
instead of a single one, thus increasing xmit_more efficiency.

This has no negative effect on the rate a TCP flow can sustain,
since each TCP flow maintains its own precise vtime (tp->tcp_wstamp_ns)

v2: added strict netlink checking (as feedback from Jakub Kicinski)

Tested:
 1000 concurrent flows all using paced packets.
 1,000,000 packets sent per second.

Before the patch :

After the patch, slack of 10 usec, we can see a reduction of interrupts
per second, and a small decrease of reported cpu usage.
