[PATCH v4] net/ice: add MAC anti-spoof option

[Anurag Mandal <anurag.mandal@intel.com>]

VRRP advertisement packets are dropped as TX-errors upon transmission from
a vsi of ice PF due to MAC anti-spoof check, which is enabled by default.
There is no way to disable this security check in the Tx direction to
avoid these packets being dropped.

This patch introduces devargs "mac-anti-spoof" to allow user to
disable MAC anti-spoof check. Disable MAC Anti-spoof check in the
Tx direction to automatically send outgoing packets even when
their destination MAC address matches one of the MAC
addresses assigned to that same NIC port and avoid getting
dropped as TX-errors.

V4: Addressed ASan CI failures & Morten Brørup's feedback
 - set the default value of the devargs to 1
 - enabled MAC anti-spoof check by default
 - provided devargs option to disbale the same

V3: Addressed Morten Brørup's feedback
 - set the default value of the devargs to 0
 - disabled MAC anti-spoof check by default
 - provided devargs option to enable the same
 - synchronized with source prune

V2: Addressed Bruce Richardson's feedback
 - changed devargs name to "mac-anti-spoof"
 - changed devargs member name to "mac_anti_spoof"
 - changed macro name to "ICE_MAC_ANTI_SPOOF_ARG"
 - set the default value of the devargs to 1
 - added NOTICE log msg when MAC Anti-spoof is disabled
 - added more code comments to provide clarity
 - fixed typo error with ICE_AQ_VSI_SEC_FLAG_ENA_MAC_ANTI_SPOOF
