iplink_vxlan: take into account preferred_family creating vxlan device
Take into account the configured preferred_family if neither saddr or
daddr are provided since otherwise vxlan kernel module will use IPv4 as
default remote inet family neglecting the one provided by userspace.
This behaviour was originally in commit
97d564b90ccb ("vxlan: use
preferred address family when neither group or remote is specified").
The issue can be triggered with the following reproducer:
$ip -6 link add vxlan1 type vxlan id 42 dev enp0s2 \
proxy nolearning l2miss l3miss
$bridge fdb add 46:47:1f:a7:1c:25 dev vxlan1 dst 2000::2
RTNETLINK answers: Address family not supported by protocol
