um: vector: avoid NULL queue dereference in legacy RX mode

Bringing a UML vector netdev up can panic in vector_net_open() with a
fault in _raw_spin_lock().

vector_net_open() calls vector_reset_stats(), which takes the RX and TX
queue locks. However, queue allocation depends on runtime transport
options. With tap transport, vector RX/TX queues are not created and the
legacy header buffers are used instead. Taking a queue lock then
dereferences a NULL queue pointer.

Take the queue locks in vector_reset_stats() only when the corresponding
queue exists. Also move the RX queue lock in vector_poll() into the
VECTOR_RX path, so legacy RX does not touch rx_queue.
