net: stmmac: Rename double VLAN references to svlan

Browse source 
The ESVL and DOVLTC bits control S-VLAN tag processing and have
nothing to do with the double VLAN feature, which only provides a way
to process an additional inner VLAN tag. However, the driver code
that handles them always refers to "double VLAN", which is unrelated
and makes the implementation confusing. The driver does not use any
of the inner VLAN tag features, and the networking core does not
support offloads for the inner tag anyway.

To reduce the confusion regarding S-Tag vs double VLAN handling,
rename double -> svlan.

No functional change intended.
