bridge: Always flood broadcast packets
As is_multicast_ether_addr returns true on broadcast packets as well, we need to explicitly exclude broadcast packets so that they're always flooded. This wasn't an issue before as broadcast packets were considered to be an unregistered multicast group, which were always flooded. However, as we now only flood such packets to router ports, this is no longer acceptable.
