device: set bridge in supplicant for 802.1X ethernet and macsec

Browse source 
When authenticating via 802.1X, the supplicant must be made aware of
the bridge the interface is attached to. This was already done for
wifi in commit ae31b4bf4e ('wifi: set the BridgeIfname supplicant
property when needed'). When setting the BridgeIfname property, the
supplicant opens an additional socket to listen on the bridge, to
ensure that all incoming EAPOL packets are received.

Without this patch, the initial authentication usually works because
it is started during stage2 (prepare), when the device is not yet
attached to the bridge, but then the re-authentication fails.

Note: I could reproduce the problem only when the bridge is configured
with bridge.group-forward-mask 8.
