Add a new ndo_update_offloads callback to net_device_ops that allows devices to compute and update their offload features during feature updates.
This callback enabling master devices to recompute their features based on current slave device configuration. This is particularly useful for bonding, bridging, team, and failover devices that need to aggregate features from their lower devices. The callback is optional and only implemented by devices that need dynamic offload feature computation.
