net: dsa: include bridge addresses which are local in the host fdb list
The bridge automatically creates local (not forwarded) fdb entries pointing towards physical ports with their interface MAC addresses. For switchdev, the significance of these fdb entries is the exact opposite of that of non-local entries: instead of sending these frame outwards, we must send them inwards (towards the host). NOTE: The bridge's own MAC address is also "local". If that address is not shared with any port, the bridge's MAC is not be added by this functionality - but the following commit takes care of that case. NOTE 2: We mark these addresses as host-filtered regardless of the value of ds->assisted_learning_on_cpu_port. This is because, as opposed to the speculative logic done for dynamic address learning on foreign interfaces, the local FDB entries are rather fixed, so there isn't any risk of them migrating from one bridge port to another.
