Adds an optional mdio-handle property which identifies a MDIO bus which can
be scanned to find the relevant PHY.  The property is ignored if phy-handle
is also present.

 - max-speed: number, specifies maximum speed in Mbit/s supported by the device;
 - max-frame-size: number, maximum transfer unit (IEEE defined MTU), rather than
   the maximum frame size (there's contradiction in ePAPR).
