Output the same names for vlan flags as the ones accepted in command input.

Benjamin, It's a good change,  but this will break existing users ?.

Nikolay voiced the same concern. The current output looks like

ben@f3:~$ bridge vlan
port    vlan ids
br0     None
tap0     1 PVID Egress Untagged

tap1     1 PVID Egress Untagged

docker0  1 PVID Egress Untagged

ben@f3:~$

"PVID Egress Untagged" look like 3 flags to me. Anything we can do to
improve it?


Put a "," after PVID ? :-)
The bigger problem is that "Egress Untagged" is also used as a flag in the json 
output.
Anyone parsing that and looking at the flags would be broken. In addition
this has been described in many of HowTos and docs over the years.

I'd just drop this change.

Thanks,
 Nik
