Phil Elwell dd9e9d6db0 net: lan78xx: Support auto-downshift to 100Mb/s ...

Ethernet cables with faulty or missing pairs (specifically pairs C and
D) allow auto-negotiation to 1000Mbs, but do not support the successful
establishment of a link. Add a DT property, "microchip,downshift-after",
to configure the number of auto-negotiation failures after which it
falls back to 100Mbs. Valid values are 2, 3, 4, 5 and 0, where 0 means
never downshift.
