[PATCH v2 1/5] net: lwip: call sys_check_timeouts and schedule on rx

Call schedule() in net_lwip_rx() to service U-Boot tasks and
actions during packet rx.

As a cleanup also move sys_check_timeouts() here and remove it from the
functions that call net_lwip_rx().

This resolves the issue of an active watchdog resetting the board on
long network activities.

v2:
 - remove duplication of sys_check_timeouts() from functions that call
   net_lwip_rx()
