mlxsw: spectrum_router: Add gateway indication to nexthop group
The next patch is going to generalize the way in which we store routes. Instead of attaching a nexthop group only to gatewayed routes, one will be attached to each route, in a similar way to the way the FIB code stores its routes. The above means that any function operating on a nexthop group cannot assume the group represents only gatewayed nexthops. One such function is the one that refreshes a nexthop group and updates the adjacency table following nexthop changes. For a nexthop group that doesn't represent any gateways this function would essentially be a NOP, but it would be useful if it did update the action associated with any route using it. This will allow us to later consolidate code paths when a nexthop changes following NH_{ADD,DEL} events.
