rocker: Explicitly mark learned FDB entries as offloaded
Currently, FDB entries that are notified to the bridge driver via 'SWITCHDEV_FDB_ADD_TO_BRIDGE' are always marked as offloaded by the bridge. With MAB enabled, this will no longer be universally true. Device drivers will report locked FDB entries to the bridge to let it know that the corresponding hosts required authorization, but it does not mean that these entries are necessarily programmed in the underlying hardware. We would like to solve it by having the bridge driver determine the offload indication based of the 'offloaded' bit in the FDB notification [1]. Prepare for that change by having rocker explicitly mark learned FDB entries as offloaded. This is consistent with all the other switchdev drivers.
