This patch allows to specify PHY register offset for ukswitch. For instance,
switch MAICREL KS8995XA connected via MDIO to SoC, but PHY register starts
at 1. So hint for this case is: hint.ukswitch.0.phyoffset=1
No change/effect if hint is not set.

The mdio driver interface is generally useful for devices that require
MDIO without the full MII bus interface. This lifts the driver/interface
out of etherswitch(4), and adds a mdio(4) man page.

* Fix API changes;
* remove unused code;
* Allow some switches to be used that don't expose a set of PHY
registers for the CPU facing port (eg the ADM6996 for the Ubiquiti
Routerstation.)

This is intended to be used as a stop-gap for switch devices
which expose multiple ethernet PHYs but we don't have a driver
for - here, etherswitchcfg and the general switch configuration
API can be used to interface to said PHYs.
