To not allow the buffer for a network instance to be changed after
creation, the create network UAPI will now take the network model data
as a user buffer. The content of the user buffer is copied into an
internally allocated DMA buffer that cannot be accessed by the user.
This breaks the current API so the Linux kernel NPU driver version and
the driver library version have been given major version bumps. All the
tests, documentation and other applications affected by the changes have
been updated accordingly.

The UAPI no longer supports the buffer capacity, offset and resize
functionality. Instead, the UAPI now only accepts a fixed size given at
the creation of the buffer. This change was made because the features
were not used and made the buffer handling more complicated. The user
knows how big buffers they need for their networks so they don't need
resize support or partial buffer usage support by having separate size
and capacity with an offset.
Without these features, the buffer instance no longer needs any IOCTL
call support so it has been removed. However, to still be able to check
the size of a buffer from its file descriptor, seek support has been
implemented so lseek and similar functions can be used to get the size.
The driver library's clear function that previously only reset the size
and offset values of the buffer will now clear the buffer content
instead.
These are breaking changes so the Linux kernel NPU driver version and
the driver library version have been given major version bumps. All the
tests and other applications affected by these changes have been updated
accordingly.

A version has been added to the driver library so users can check if
they are compatible with the driver library in use.
The Python wrapper has been updated accordingly to make the version
information available.

The driver library will now check that it's compatible with the kernel
driver in use by checking the kernel driver's version.
The kernel driver version has also been made available to the library
users and the Python wrapper has been updated accordingly.

Python `ethosu_driver` could be built as part of Arm Ethos-U Linux
driver library CMake flow.
See driver_library/python/README.md for more details.
