xdp: bpf_xdp_metadata use EOPNOTSUPP for no driver support

When driver doesn't implement a bpf_xdp_metadata kfunc the fallback
implementation returns EOPNOTSUPP, which indicate device driver doesn't
implement this kfunc.

Currently many drivers also return EOPNOTSUPP when the hint isn't
available, which is ambiguous from an API point of view. Instead
change drivers to return ENODATA in these cases.

There can be natural cases why a driver doesn't provide any hardware
info for a specific hint, even on a frame to frame basis (e.g. PTP).
Lets keep these cases as separate return codes.

When describing the return values, adjust the function kernel-doc layout
to get proper rendering for the return values.
