net: use ndo_set_features to set offload features for bonding/bridge/team

This commit converts bonding, bridge, and team drivers to use the
ndo_set_features callback instead of manually calling
netdev_compute_master_upper_features() during port add/remove operations.

Can the feature computation skip updating ancillary fields when features
don't change?

The new architecture routes computation through netdev_change_features() ->
__netdev_update_features() -> ndo_set_features(). However,
__netdev_update_features() has this check:

net/core/dev.c:__netdev_update_features() {
    ...
    if (dev->features == features)
        goto sync_lower;

This skips the ndo_set_features callback entirely when computed features
match current features. This means netdev_compute_master_upper_features() is
never called when dev->features doesn't change, even though it updates
several ancillary fields independent of dev->features:

- vlan_features
- hw_enc_features
- mpls_features
- gso_partial_features
- tso_max_size
- tso_max_segs
- hard_header_len
- needed_headroom
- needed_tailroom

For example, adding a second bond slave with identical dev->features but
different tso_max_size or vlan_features will not trigger ndo_set_features,
leaving the bond's ancillary fields stale.

In the old code, netdev_compute_master_upper_features() was called
unconditionally and always updated these fields regardless of whether
dev->features changed.

The same issue applies here. When a port is removed but dev->features
doesn't change, the ancillary fields won't be recomputed.
