Attempts to replace an MDB group membership of the host itself are
currently bounced:

 # ip link add name br up type bridge vlan_filtering 1
 # bridge mdb replace dev br port br grp 239.0.0.1 vid 2
 # bridge mdb replace dev br port br grp 239.0.0.1 vid 2
 Error: bridge: Group is already joined by host.

A similar operation done on a member port would succeed. Ignore the check
for replacement of host group memberships as well.

The bit of code that this enables is br_multicast_host_join(), which, for
already-joined groups only refreshes the MC group expiration timer, which
is desirable; and a userspace notification, also desirable.

Change a selftest that exercises this code path from expecting a rejection
to expecting a pass. The rest of MDB selftests pass without modification.
