net/bridge: Add skb drop reasons to the most common drop points

The bridge input code may drop frames for various reasons and at various
points in the ingress handling logic. Currently kfree_skb() is used
everywhere, and therefore no drop reason is specified. Add drop reasons
to the most common drop points.

The purpose of this series is to address the most common drop points on
the bridge ingress path. It does not exhaustively add drop reasons to
the entire bridge code. The intention here is to incrementally add drop
reasons to the rest of the bridge code in follow up patches.

Most of the skb drop points that are addressed in this series can be
easily tested by sending crafted packets. The diagram below shows a
simple test configuration, and some examples using `packit`(*) are
also included. The bridge is set up with STP disabled.

The following changes were *not* tested:
* SKB_DROP_REASON_NOMEM in br_flood(). It's not easy to trigger an OOM
  condition for testing purposes, while everything else works correctly.
* All drop reasons in br_multicast_flood(). I could not find an easy way
  to make a crafted packet get there.
* SKB_DROP_REASON_BRIDGE_INGRESS_STP_STATE in br_handle_frame_finish()
  when the port state is BR_STATE_DISABLED, because in that case the
  frame is already dropped in the switch/case block at the end of
  br_handle_frame().
