net: bridge: mcast: add and enforce startup query interval minimum
As reported[1] if startup query interval is set too low in combination with large number of startup queries and we have multiple bridges or even a single bridge with multiple querier vlans configured we can crash the machine. Add a 1 second minimum which must be enforced by overwriting the value if set lower (i.e. without returning an error) to avoid breaking user-space. If that happens a log message is emitted to let the admin know that the startup interval has been set to the minimum. It doesn't make sense to make the startup interval lower than the normal query interval so use the same value of 1 second. The issue has been present since these intervals could be user-controlled.
