Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 08/14] net: bridge: mcast: track active state, if snooping is enabled

To be able to use the upcoming SWITCHDEV_ATTR_ID_BRIDGE_MC_ACTIVE
as a potential replacement for SWITCHDEV_ATTR_ID_BRIDGE_MC_DISABLED
also check and toggle the active state if multicast snooping is enabled
or disabled. So that MC_ACTIVE not only checks the querier state, but
also if multicast snooping is enabled in general.

No functional change for the fast/data path yet.
