net: enable GRO by default for vlan devices 

Currently vlan devices don't have GRO by default as none of the Ethernet
drivers add NETIF_F_GRO to their vlan_features.

As GRO is a software feature add GRO to dev->vlan_features in
register_netdevice() and let vlan_dev_init() take care that it gets
enabled only when dev->features has NETIF_F_GRO too.
