ixgbevf: add missing negotiate_features op to Hyper-V ops table

Commit a7075f501bd3 ("ixgbevf: fix mailbox API compatibility by
negotiating supported features") added the .negotiate_features callback
to ixgbe_mac_operations and populated it in ixgbevf_mac_ops, but forgot
to add it to ixgbevf_hv_mac_ops. This leaves the function pointer NULL
on Hyper-V VMs.

During probe, ixgbevf_negotiate_api() calls ixgbevf_set_features(),
which unconditionally dereferences hw->mac.ops.negotiate_features().
On Hyper-V this results in a NULL pointer dereference:

  BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
  [...]
  Hardware name: Microsoft Corporation Virtual Machine/Virtual Machine [...]
  Workqueue: events work_for_cpu_fn
  RIP: 0010:0x0
  [...]
  Call Trace:
   ixgbevf_negotiate_api+0x66/0x160 [ixgbevf]

   [...]

Add ixgbevf_hv_negotiate_features_vf() that returns -EOPNOTSUPP and
wire it into ixgbevf_hv_mac_ops. The caller already handles -EOPNOTSUPP
gracefully.
