[PATCH net-next v11 05/13] net: ethtool: Allow passing a phy index for some commands

Some netlink commands are target towards ethernet PHYs, to control some
of their features. As there's several such commands, add the ability to
pass a PHY index in the ethnl request, which will populate the generic
ethnl_req_info with the relevant phydev when the command targets a PHY.

V11: - Fixed documentation typos
     - Dropped the netlink attr error message
     - Added a check when passing a phy index but no netdev
        (Thanks Jakub for the review)
V10: - No changes
V9: - No changes
V8: - No changes
V7: - No changes
V6: - Added dedicated policies when passing a PHY index
    - Dropped Andrew's R-b as there were changes
V5: - Added Andrew's R-b
    - Fix a typo reported by Simon
V4: - No Changes
V3: - Fixed the documentation
V2: - New patch

+``ETHTOOL_A_HEADER_PHY_INDEX`` identifies the Ethernet PHY the message relates to.
+As there are numerous commands that are related to PHY configuration, and because
+there may be more than one PHY on the link, the PHY index can be passed in the
+request for the commands that needs it. It is, however, not mandatory, and if it
+is not passed for commands that target a PHY, the net_device.phydev pointer
