Ip: allow set_mtu to skip asserting the resulting mtu

Some drivers silently clamp or ignore an mtu change, and callers that
only want a best effort change had no way to avoid the assertion. Add
assert_success, defaulting to the existing behavior, and log the
mismatch instead of failing when it is disabled.
