PCI: Fail new_id for vendor/device values already built into driver

While using the sysfs new_id interface, the user can unintentionally feed
incorrect values if the driver static table has a matching entry.  This is
possible since only the device and vendor fields are mandatory and the rest
are optional.  As a result, store_new_id() will fill in default values that
are then passed on to the driver and can have unintended consequences.

As an example, consider the ixgbe driver and the 82599EB network card:

  echo "8086 10fb" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ixgbe/new_id

This will pass a pci_device_id with driver_data = 0 to ixgbe_probe(), which
uses that zero to index a table of card operations.  The zeroth entry of
the table does *not* correspond to the 82599 operations.

This change returns an error if the user attempts to add a dynid for a
vendor/device combination for which a static entry already exists.
However, if the user intentionally wants a different set of values, she
must provide all the 7 fields and that will be accepted.
