net/mlx5: Fix bridge mode operations when there are no VFs
Currently, trying to set the bridge mode attribute when numvfs=0 leads to a
crash:

(esw->fdb_table.legacy.vepa_fdb is null)
The bridge mode is only relevant when there are multiple functions per
port. Therefore, prevent setting and getting this setting when there are no
VFs.
Note that after this change, there are no settings to change on the PF
interface using `bridge link` when there are no VFs, so the interface no
longer appears in the `bridge link` output.
