tools: ynl: fix handling of multiple mcast groups
[ Upstream commit b6c65eb20ffa8e3bd89f551427dbeee2876d72ca ]
We never increment the group number iterator, so all groups
get recorded into index 0 of the mcast_groups[] array.
As a result YNL can only handle using the last group.
For example using the "netdev" sample on kernel with
page pool commands results in:
$ ./samples/netdev
YNL: Multicast group 'mgmt' not found
Most families have only one multicast group, so this hasn't
been noticed. Plus perhaps developers usually test the last
group which would have worked.
