net: dsa: eliminate local type for tc policers

David Yang is saying that struct flow_action_entry in
include/net/flow_offload.h has gained new fields and DSA's struct
dsa_mall_policer_tc_entry, derived from that, isn't keeping up.
This structure is passed to drivers and they are completely oblivious to
the values of fields they don't see.

This has happened before, and almost always the solution was to make the
DSA layer thinner and use the upstream data structures. Here, the reason
why we didn't do that is because struct flow_action_entry :: police is
an anonymous structure.

That is easily enough fixable, just name those fields "struct
flow_action_police" and reference them from DSA.

Make the according transformations to the two users (sja1105 and felix):
"rate_bytes_per_sec" -> "rate_bytes_ps".
