ip: vxlan: Support IFLA_VXLAN_RESERVED_BITS

A new attribute, IFLA_VXLAN_RESERVED_BITS, was added in Linux kernel
commit 6c11379b104e ("vxlan: Add an attribute to make VXLAN header
validation configurable") (See the link below for the full patchset).

The payload is a 64-bit binary field that covers the VXLAN header. The set
bits indicate which bits in a VXLAN packet header should be allowed to
carry 1's. Support the new attribute through a CLI keyword "reserved_bits".
