Hi, this PR allows to use bridges with macvlan interfaces, and attach them directly to bridges.

@kvaps - Why not set MACVLAN_MODE=1 set inside error that originally printed the error message that it wasn't supported, thereby making the command line option unnecessary. And the original error redundant. i.e. the mode becomes automatic.

Using macvlan on top of bridges is quite specific configuration. Usually better to attach macvlan device on top interface from your bridge.
Maybe we need to improve error message.
