devlink: Fix excessive stack usage in rate TC bandwidth parsing

The devlink_nl_rate_tc_bw_parse function uses a large stack array for
devlink attributes, which triggers a warning about excessive stack
usage:

net/devlink/rate.c: In function 'devlink_nl_rate_tc_bw_parse':
net/devlink/rate.c:382:1: error: the frame size of 1648 bytes is larger than 1536 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]

Introduce a separate attribute set specifically for rate TC bandwidth
parsing that only contains the two attributes actually used: index
and bandwidth. This reduces the stack array from DEVLINK_ATTR_MAX
entries to just 2 entries, solving the stack usage issue.

Update devlink selftest to use the new 'index' and 'bw' attribute names
consistent with the YAML spec.

Example usage with ynl with the new spec:

    ./tools/net/ynl/cli.py --spec Documentation/netlink/specs/devlink.yaml \
      --do rate-set --json '{
      "bus-name": "pci",
      "dev-name": "0000:08:00.0",
      "port-index": 1,
      "rate-tc-bws": [
        {"index": 0, "bw": 50},
        {"index": 1, "bw": 50},
        {"index": 2, "bw": 0},
        {"index": 3, "bw": 0},
        {"index": 4, "bw": 0},
        {"index": 5, "bw": 0},
        {"index": 6, "bw": 0},
        {"index": 7, "bw": 0}
      ]
    }'

    ./tools/net/ynl/cli.py --spec Documentation/netlink/specs/devlink.yaml \
      --do rate-get --json '{
      "bus-name": "pci",
      "dev-name": "0000:08:00.0",
      "port-index": 1
    }'

    output for rate-get:
    {'bus-name': 'pci',
     'dev-name': '0000:08:00.0',
     'port-index': 1,
     'rate-tc-bws': [{'bw': 50, 'index': 0},
                     {'bw': 50, 'index': 1},
                     {'bw': 0, 'index': 2},
                     {'bw': 0, 'index': 3},
                     {'bw': 0, 'index': 4},
                     {'bw': 0, 'index': 5},
                     {'bw': 0, 'index': 6},
                     {'bw': 0, 'index': 7}],
     'rate-tx-max': 0,
     'rate-tx-priority': 0,
     'rate-tx-share': 0,
     'rate-tx-weight': 0,
     'rate-type': 'leaf'}
