net: dsa: Use conduit and user terms

Use more inclusive terms throughout the DSA subsystem by moving away
from "master" which is replaced by "conduit" and "slave" which is
replaced by "user". No functional changes.

docs: net: dsa: sja1105: document limitations of tc-flower rule VLAN awareness

After change "net: dsa: tag_8021q: replace the SVL bridging with
VLAN-unaware IVL bridging", tag_8021q enforces two different pvids on a
port, depending on whether it is standalone or in a VLAN-unaware bridge.

Up until now, there was a single pvid, represented by
dsa_tag_8021q_rx_vid(), and that was used as the VLAN for VLAN-unaware
virtual link rules, regardless of whether the port was bridged or
standalone.

To keep VLAN-unaware virtual links working, we need to follow whether
the port is in a bridge or not, and update the VLAN ID from those rules.

In fact we can't fully do that. Depending on whether the switch is
VLAN-aware or not, we can accept Virtual Link rules with just the MAC
DA, or with a MAC DA and a VID. So we already deny changes to the VLAN
awareness of the switch. But the VLAN awareness may also change as a
result of joining or leaving a bridge.

One might say we could just allow the following: a port may leave a
VLAN-unaware bridge while it has VLAN-unaware VL (tc-flower) rules, and
the driver will update those with the new tag_8021q pvid for standalone
mode, but the driver won't accept joining a bridge at all while VL rules
were installed in standalone mode. This is sort of a compromise made
because leaving a bridge is an operation that cannot be vetoed.
But this sort of setup change is not fully supported, either: as
mentioned, VLAN filtering changes can also be triggered by leaving a
bridge, therefore, the existing veto we have in place for turning VLAN
filtering off with VLAN-aware VL rules active still isn't fully
effective.

I really don't know how to deal with this in a way that produces
predictable behavior for user space. Since at the moment, keeping this
feature fully functional on constellation changes (not changing the
tag_8021q port pvid when joining a bridge) is blocking progress for the
DSA FDB isolation, I'd rather document it as a (potentially temporary)
limitation and go on without it.

docs: net: sja1105.rst: fix table format

There's a table there with produces two warnings when built
with Sphinx:

Documentation/networking/dsa/sja1105.rst:91: WARNING: Block quote ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent.
Documentation/networking/dsa/sja1105.rst:91: WARNING: Block quote ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent.

It will still produce a table, but the html output is wrong, as
it won't interpret the second line as the continuation for the
first ones, because identation doesn't match.

After the change, the output looks a way better and we got rid
of two warnings.
