[nexus] implement test 1.2.LP.7.2.2 for Forward Series Probing (#12626)

This commit implements Nexus test 1.2.LP.7.2.2 to verify that the
DUT (Leader) can successfully support a minimum of 6 simultaneous
children (3 SEDs and 3 SSEDs) performing link metrics operations.

Specifically, the test verifies that:
- The DUT correctly handles simultaneous Forward Series Link Metrics
  Management Requests and Enhanced ACK probing requests.
- The DUT properly aggregates metrics for multiple concurrent series
  with different configurations (MAC Data Requests, Link Layer data
  frames, LQI, RSSI, and Link Margin).
- Aggregated results are accurately reported in MLE Data Responses
  when queried by multiple children.
- The DUT successfully provides link metrics in Enhanced ACKs for
  both SED and SSED children.

Changes:
- Added test_1_2_LP_7_2_2.cpp to implement the test logic, including
  node configuration, management requests, and data collection.
- Added verify_1_2_LP_7_2_2.py for automated PCAP verification of
  MLE TLVs and Enhanced ACK Vendor IEs.
- Updated verify_utils.py to include necessary layer fields for
  Link Metrics verification in pktverify.
- Registered the new test in CMakeLists.txt and run_nexus_tests.sh.

What is OpenThread?

OpenThread released by Google is...

...an open-source implementation of the Thread networking protocol. Google Nest has released OpenThread to make the technology used in Nest products more broadly available to developers to accelerate the development of products for the connected home.

...OS and platform agnostic, with a narrow platform abstraction layer and a small memory footprint, making it highly portable. It supports both system-on-chip (SoC) and network co-processor (NCP) designs.

...a Thread Certified Component, implementing all features defined in the Thread 1.4.0 specification, including all Thread networking layers (IPv6, 6LoWPAN, IEEE 802.15.4 with MAC security, Mesh Link Establishment, Mesh Routing) and device roles, as well as Border Router support.
