Subject: [PATCH REPOST] docs: networking: Remove VLAN_TAG_PRESENT from openvswitch doc

Since commit 0c4b2d370514 ("net: remove VLAN_TAG_PRESENT"), the kernel
no longer uses VLAN_TAG_PRESENT.
Update the openvswitch documentation which still contained an outdated
reference to VLAN_TAG_PRESENT.

 Unlike a TCP packet with source and destination ports 0, an
-all-zero-bits VLAN TCI is not that rare, so the CFI bit (aka
-VLAN_TAG_PRESENT inside the kernel) is ordinarily set in a vlan
-attribute expressly to allow this situation to be distinguished.

 Thus, the flow key in this second example unambiguously indicates a
 missing or malformed VLAN TCI.
