batman-adv: Fix reference counting of vlan object for tt_local_entry
The batadv_tt_local_entry was specific to a batadv_softif_vlan and held an implicit reference to it. But this reference was never stored in form of a pointer in the tt_local_entry itself. Instead batadv_tt_local_remove, batadv_tt_local_table_free and batadv_tt_local_purge_pending_clients depend on a consistent state of bat_priv->softif_vlan_list and that batadv_softif_vlan_get always returns the batadv_softif_vlan object which it has a reference for. But batadv_softif_vlan_get cannot guarantee that because it is working only with rcu_read_lock on this list. It can therefore happen that an vid is in this list twice or that batadv_softif_vlan_get cannot find the batadv_softif_vlan for an vid due to some other list operations taking place at the same time. Instead add a batadv_softif_vlan pointer directly in batadv_tt_local_entry which will be used for the reference counter decremented on release of batadv_tt_local_entry.
