ice: Check if unicast MAC exists before setting VF MAC



Currently if a unicast MAC is set via ndo_set_vf_mac, the PF driver will
set the VF's dflt_lan_addr.addr once some basic checks have passed. The
VF is then reset. During reset the PF driver will attempt to program the
VF's MAC from the dflt_lan_addr.addr field. This fails when the MAC
already exists on the PF's switch.

This is causing the VF to be completely disabled until removing/enabling
any VFs via sysfs.

Fix this by checking if the unicast MAC exists before triggering a VF
reset directly in ndo_set_vf_mac. Also, add a check if the unicast MAC
is set to the same value as before and return 0 if that is the case.
