hw/net/vmxnet3: allow VMXNET3_MAX_MTU itself as a value
Currently, VMXNET3_MAX_MTU itself (being 9000) is not considered a
valid value for the MTU, but a guest running ESXi 7.0 might try to
set it and fail the assert [0].
In the Linux kernel, dev->max_mtu itself is a valid value for the MTU
and for the vmxnet3 driver it's 9000, so a guest running Linux will
also fail the assert when trying to set an MTU of 9000.
VMXNET3_MAX_MTU and s->mtu don't seem to be used in relation to buffer
allocations/accesses, so allowing the upper limit itself as a value
should be fine.
