There are two resources associated with shared buffer size:
cap_total_buffer_size, and cap_guaranteed_shared_buffer. So far, mlxsw has
been using the former as a limit to determine how large a pool size is
allowed to be. However, the total size also includes headrooms and reserved
space, which really cannot be used for shared buffer pools.

Therefore convert mlxsw to use the latter resource as a limit. Adjust
hard-coded pool sizes to be the guaranteed size minus 256000 bytes for CPU
port pool. On Spectrum-1 that actually leads to an increase. A follow-up
patch will have this size calculated automatically.
