refactor: modularize dynamic module and port class creation logic

[bhagathkrishnacdac]

Description
This PR refactors _get_bess_module_and_port_creators to address cognitive complexity. The original monolithic function, which managed BESS RPC lookups, namespace collision checks, exception formatting, and dynamic Python type generation, has been decomposed into small, single-responsibility helper functions.

Key Changes

• Separated Name Collection: Extracted _collect_module_and_driver_names to query the active driver and module class names from the BESS daemon.
• Isolated Namespace Collision Checks:
  • _find_duplicate_names evaluates naming collisions between reserved words, modules, and drivers using collections.Counter.
  • _generate_duplicate_error_message formats descriptive error strings if an invalid namespace overlap is detected.
• Decoupled Type Instantiation: Extracted _create_module_creators and _create_port_creators to dynamically construct subclass objects of Module and Port using the standard type() constructor.

Pull request overview

Refactors bessctl/commands.py to reduce cognitive complexity in _get_bess_module_and_port_creators by decomposing BESS RPC name collection, namespace-collision detection, and dynamic type construction into focused helper functions.

Changes:

• Extracted helper to collect module class names and port driver names from the BESS daemon.
• Isolated duplicate-name detection and formatting into dedicated helpers.
• Split dynamic type() creator construction into separate module/port creator helpers.

bessctl/commands.py:792

• The refactor removed the in-code rationale around why duplicate names are considered a BESS fault and what invariants the C++ layer already enforces. Keeping that context near the duplicate-detection logic will help future maintainers avoid weakening the constraints unintentionally.

    """Find duplicate names between reserved names, modules, and drivers."""  
    counts = collections.Counter(rsvd.keys())  
    counts.update(class_names)  
    counts.update(driver_names)

@bhagathkrishnacdac,
FYI, for us to be able to merge a PR, all of its checks (required GHAs) need to pass. So, please address the issue with the whitespace GHA.
Thank you!
