Don't validate local_link_connection when port has client-id

Infiniband ports do not require the local_link_connection field to be
populated as the network topology is discoverable by the Infiniband
Subnet Manager.

This change removes the requirement for local_link_connection for
Infiniband ports. Infiniband ports have a client-id in their extra
field.
