IB/core: Expose and rename ib_find_cached_gid_by_port cache API
Sometime consumers might want to search for a GID in a specific port. For example, when a WC arrives and we want to search the GID that matches that port - it's better to search only the relevant port. Exposing and renaming ib_cache_gid_find_by_port in order to match the naming convention of the module.
