[PATCH 1/2] iproute2 vxlan documentation update for bridge command

[Thomas Richter <tmricht@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

The bridge fdb command line help and the bridge.8
man page are outdated in regards to the vxlan support.
The patch updates both the command line help for the
bridge command and its man page.
