[PATCH net mlxsw v2] mlxsw: spectrum: Forbid creation of VLAN 1 over port/LAG

VLAN 1 is internally used for untagged traffic. Prevent creation of
explicit netdevice for that VLAN, because that currently isn't supported
and leads to the NULL pointer dereference cited below.

Fix by preventing creation of VLAN devices with VID of 1 over mlxsw
devices or LAG devices that involve mlxsw devices.
