[RFC PATCH v0 2/2] ixgbe: add NETIF_F_HW_FDB to supported flags

[John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com>]

Add support for NETIF_F_HW_FDB flag when SR-IOV is enabled. This
allows the bridge to push fdb entries into the hardware so the
VF can communicate with virtual devices attached to the bridge.
