Following the path through a bridge, there are 2 situations where the
action is to keep:
1. Packets have the encap, and keep the tag at ingress and keep it at
egress. It is typical in the forward path, when a vlan-device and
bridge are combined.
2. Packets do not have the encap, are tagged at ingress and untagged
at egress. Can be found when only a bridge is in the forward path.
It is also possible in the bridged path, that maybe added later.
For switchdev userports that support SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_PORT_VLAN in
sitaution 2, it is necessary to introduce DEV_PATH_BR_VLAN_KEEP_HW.
The typical situation 1 is unchanged: DEV_PATH_BR_VLAN_KEEP.
DEV_PATH_BR_VLAN_KEEP_HW is similar to DEV_PATH_BR_VLAN_TAG, with the
correcponding bit in ingress_vlans set.

Changes in v12:
-Split from [PATCH v11 nf-next] netfilter: fastpath fixes
Changes in v11: (results of testing with bridge_fastpath.sh)
- Dropped "No ingress_vlan forward info for dsa user port" patch.
- Added Introduce DEV_PATH_BR_VLAN_KEEP_HW, which changed from
applying only in the bridge-fastpath to all fastpaths. Added
a better explanation to the description.
Changes in v10:
- Split from patch-set: bridge-fastpath and related improvements v9
