datapath: vxlan: Relax MTU constraints.

Upstream commit:
    Allow the MTU of vxlan devices without an underlying device to be set
    to larger values (up to a maximum based on IP packet limits and vxlan
    overhead).

    Previously, their MTUs could not be set to higher than the
    conventional ethernet value of 1500.  This is a very arbitrary value
    in the context of vxlan, and prevented vxlan devices from being able
    to take advantage of jumbo frames etc.

    The default MTU remains 1500, for compatibility.
