net: bridge: allow IPv6 when multicast flood is disabled

[ Upstream commit 8953de2f ]

Even with multicast flooding turned off, IPv6 ND should still work so
that IPv6 connectivity is provided. Allow this by continuing to flood
multicast traffic originated by us.

Fixes: b6cb5ac8 ("net: bridge: add per-port multicast flood flag")
