veth: add vlan features
The veth device doesn't provide the vlan features,
so TSO for example is disabled and that causes
performance issues when using tagged traffic.
The test topology looks like this:
br0 br1
/ \ / \
vnet veth0.10 ----- veth1.10 vnet
VM VM
The netperf results with current veth driver:
MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from 192.168.1.1 ()
port 0 AF_INET to 192.168.1.2 () port 0 AF_INET

Now after applying the proposed patch:
MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from 192.168.1.1 ()
port 0 AF_INET to 192.168.1.2 () port 0 AF_INET
