ixgbe: Disallow SFP 1G modules in the SFP+ cages for 82598 and 82599

Browse source

82598 and 82599 do not support SFP 1G modules.  Instead of allowing the
driver to load, but never get link, rejecting the module and displaying
a useful message is more preferrable.  The framework for displaying the
failure message already exists, now we just need to detect and reject the
SFP modules.
