Currently, multicast packets will be flood even if there is no
mutlicast snooping entry attached to port.

With IGMP snooping enabled, we should stop sending multicast packets
if there is no member joined.

Hmm, the default is deliberately this way so that we don't disrupt
traffic when we boot up.  If you want to stop flooding unknown groups
by default you have to make it an option.
