Allow the use of ndo_dflt_fdb_<add|del|dump> when the
adapter does not have VF configured.  This allows for
IFF_UNICAST_FLT support and allows VF handling to potentially
do something different.

With the first patch we can just remove this routine altogether and
let the dflt handler do its work.

CC'd Greg in case I miss something.
OK.  I took the safe approach and kept the functions.  The only 
difference right now is that right now with VF configured, fdb_add
refuses to add more then IXGBE_MAX_PF_MACVLANS and thus never would
enter into promisc mode.   I am not sure if that how its supposed to
be have or not.  That's one of the reasons I kept this around.

This is the same as not defining the op at all right? Just
remove it.

Then we get a patch with all '-' which is sort of nice.
