net/bonding: Optionally allow ethernet slaves to keep own MAC

Update the "don't change MAC of slaves" functionality added in
previous changes to be a generic option, rather than something tied to
IB devices, as it's occasionally useful for regular ethernet devices as
well.

Adds "fail_over_mac" option (which is automatically enabled for IB
slaves), applicable only to active-backup mode.

Includes documentation update.

Updates bonding driver version to 3.2.0.
