igb: VFTA Table Fix for i350 devices

Due to a hardware problem, writes to the VFTA register can
theoretically fail. Although the likelihood of this is very low.
This patch adds a shadow vfta in the adapter struct for reading
and adds new write functions for these devices to work around the problem.
