Add BR_HAIRPIN_MODE, BR_ISOLATED and BR_MULTICAST_TO_UNICAST port flags to
BR_PORT_FLAGS_HW_OFFLOAD so that switchdev drivers which have an offloaded
data plane have a chance to reject these bridge port flags if they don't
support them yet.

It makes the code path go through the
SWITCHDEV_ATTR_ID_PORT_PRE_BRIDGE_FLAGS driver handlers, which return
-EINVAL for everything they don't recognize.

For drivers that don't catch SWITCHDEV_ATTR_ID_PORT_PRE_BRIDGE_FLAGS at
all, switchdev will return -EOPNOTSUPP for those which is then ignored, but
those are in the minority.

Let me know if this is netdev/net material instead.

I prefer net-next

The thing with targeting this against "net" is that we've seen the
introduction of BR_PORT_LOCKED fairly recently which has tainted the
BR_PORT_FLAGS_HW_OFFLOAD macro. So backporting would conflict very
quickly down the path. Sure that isn't a decisive problem, but I don't
think it's worth the extra trouble of preparing special patches for the
"stable" trees, and having those diverge from the current master.
