ice: implement symmetric RSS hash configuration

The driver advertises symmetric RSS support via supported_input_xfrm
but ice_set_rxfh() ignored the input_xfrm parameter, making it
impossible to configure symmetric hashing. This patch fixes
ice_set_rxfh() to check the input_xfrm parameter and configure
symmetric hashing appropriately, modifies ice_set_rss_vsi_ctx() to use
vsi->rss_hfunc instead of hardcoding values, and updates
ice_get_rxfh_fields() to report symmetric field configurations.

                  ^^^^^^^

Does this unconditional assignment at the end of ice_get_rxfh_fields()
overwrite the actual hardware configuration that was just computed?

The hash fields are carefully decoded from the hardware configuration
returned by ice_get_rss_cfg() and built up in nfc->data through the series
of bitwise OR operations. Then this line uses assignment (=) rather than
bitwise OR (|=), replacing all those computed values with a fixed set of
hash fields.

This would make the entire per-field computation from the hardware state
become dead code. The function would always report the same fixed hash
fields (RXH_IP_SRC | RXH_IP_DST | RXH_L4_B_0_1 | RXH_L4_B_2_3) regardless
of what is actually configured in hardware. GTP TEID hash fields would
never be reported even when configured.

Was this intended to be an additional |= operation, or should this line
be removed entirely?
