bridge: multicast: add sanity check for general query destination

General IGMP and MLD queries are supposed to have the multicast link-local all-nodes address as their destination according to RFC2236 section 9, RFC3376 section 4.1.12/9.1, RFC2710 section 8 and RFC3810 section 5.1.15. Without this check, such malformed IGMP/MLD queries can result in a denial of service: The queries are ignored by most IGMP/MLD listeners therefore they will not respond with an IGMP/MLD report. However, without this patch these malformed MLD queries would enable the snooping part in the bridge code, potentially shutting down the according ports towards these hosts for multicast traffic as the bridge did not learn about these listeners.
