vxlan: Update hard_header_len based on lowerdev when instantiating VXLAN
In the event of a VXLAN device being linked to a device that has a
hard_header_len greater than that of standard ethernet we could end up with
the hard_header_len not being large enough for outgoing frames. In order to
prevent this we should update the length when a lowerdev is provided.
