Add the ability to determine whether a netdev is a VxLAN netdev by
calling the above mentioned function that checks the netdev's
rtnl_link_ops.

This will allow modules to identify netdev events involving a VxLAN
netdev and act accordingly. For example, drivers capable of VxLAN
offload will need to configure the underlying device when a VxLAN netdev
is being enslaved to an offloaded bridge.

Convert nfp to use the newly introduced helper.
