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.

+As there are numerous commands that are related to PHY configuration, and because
