net: airoha: Fix max TX packet length configuration

This commit fixes the MTU configuration for the Airoha driver by removing
ETH_FCS_LEN from the maximum TX packet length, matching the hardware
documentation which states the register does not include the FCS length.

Does this regression cause MTU-sized VLAN-tagged frames to be dropped by the
hardware?

By limiting the frame size to ETH_HLEN + dev->mtu, the maximum allowed length
becomes 1514 bytes for a standard 1500 MTU. An Ethernet frame containing a
standard 802.1Q VLAN tag and a maximum-sized 1500-byte IP payload requires an
18-byte L2 header, making the total frame size 1518 bytes (excluding FCS).

Previously, the inclusion of ETH_FCS_LEN inadvertently provided the 4-byte
headroom needed to accommodate a single VLAN tag. 

Could the configuration explicitly account for VLAN headers using VLAN_ETH_HLEN
instead?
