Several fixes for the existing software forward-fastpath code, also
needed for the software bridge-fastpath.

DEV_PATH_BR_VLAN_UNTAG_HW should not be applied to dsa foreign ports.

Also DEV_PATH_MTK_WDMA needs to be introduced to nft_dev_path_info().

Introduce DEV_PATH_BR_VLAN_KEEP_HW.

Changes in v11, results of testing with bridge_fastpath.sh:
- Dropped "No ingress_vlan forward info for dsa user port" patch.
- Added Introduce DEV_PATH_BR_VLAN_KEEP_HW, which changed from
   applying only in the bridge-fastpath to all fastpaths. Added
   a better explanation to the description.

v10 split from patch-set: bridge-fastpath and related improvements v9
