ethtool, mdio, mii: Specify MDIO information fields in struct ethtool_cmd
Add comments for ethtool_cmd::phy_address and ethtool_cmd::mdio_support, and definitions of the flags currently used in mdio_support. In the mdio library, assert that its own flags continue to match those in the ethtool interface. In the mii library, use the ethtool flag definition and stop including <linux/mdio.h>.
