devlink: support index-based lookup via bus_name/dev_name handle
Devlink instances without a backing device use bus_name "devlink_index" and dev_name set to the decimal index string. When user space sends this handle, detect the pattern and perform a direct xarray lookup by index instead of iterating all instances.
