Subject: [PATCH iproute2-next] bridge: mcast: add mcast_active_v4 / mcast_active_v6 output

Add output for the mcast_active_v4 and mcast_active_v6 states. If their
output is 1 then IGMP/MLD snooping is applied to multicast payload
traffic of their according protocol family. This is the case when:

* the bridge interface is up
* multicast snooping is enabled
* an IGMP/MLD querier is present
* for own IPv6 MLD querier: an IPv6 address is configured on the bridge
