[PATCH net-next mlxsw v2 1/4] mlxsw: spectrum: Enable macvlan upper devices

In order to allow more unicast MAC addresses (e.g., VRRP virtual MAC) to
be directed to the router we need to enable macvlan uppers on top of
mlxsw netdevs.

Allow macvlan upper devices on top of mlxsw netdevs and sanitize
configurations that can't work. For example, a macvlan can't be enslaved
to a bridge as without ACLs the device doesn't take the destination MAC
into account when classifying a packet to a bridge instance (i.e., a
FID).

Notes:
    v2:
    * Resolve 'extack' only when we know it's an upper change event
    
    v1:
    * Remove redundant check about port with a macvlan being enslaved to LAG. This
    is already forbidden by the stack, as both register an Rx handler
    * Refactor mlxsw_sp_netdevice_bridge_event() - no functional changes
