selftests: net: add bridge STP mode selection test

Add a selftest for the IFLA_BR_STP_MODE bridge attribute that verifies:

1. stp_mode defaults to auto on new bridges
2. stp_mode can be toggled between user, kernel, and auto
3. Changing stp_mode while STP is active is rejected with -EBUSY
4. Re-setting the same stp_mode while STP is active succeeds
5. stp_mode user in a network namespace yields userspace STP (stp_state=2)
6. stp_mode kernel forces kernel STP (stp_state=1)
7. stp_mode auto in a netns preserves traditional fallback to kernel STP
8. stp_mode and stp_state can be set atomically in a single message
9. stp_mode persists across STP disable/enable cycles

Test 5 is the key use case: it demonstrates that userspace STP can now
be enabled in non-init network namespaces by setting stp_mode to user
before enabling STP.

Test 8 verifies the atomic usage pattern where both attributes are set
in a single netlink message, which is supported because br_changelink()
processes IFLA_BR_STP_MODE before IFLA_BR_STP_STATE.

The test gracefully skips if the installed iproute2 does not support
the stp_mode attribute.
