The CONFIG_NET_SWITCHDEV option is needed by CONFIG_DSA and some other
options. It is boolean, we have to compile it into the kernel it self.
Activate it for all targets in the generic configuration, it is already
activated for most of them. This allows to install DSA drivers as a
module.
On the ramips/mt7620 target the kernel would grown by 4.5kB.
For some small targets which do not support a DSA switch by default the
option is deactivated.

This has several advantages:
* reduction in the size of the kernel and the complete image. Individual
devices only need two of the four binaries. In combination with the second
commit it reduces kernel size by 64.2 kB and image size by 22.8 kB,
* the option to extend this package with firmware for future SoCs,
* combining the kernel and binary blobs with another licence may not be
fully compatible with the licence used by Linux. The current PHY firmware
is built into the kernel. This comit converts it to a package.
Tested on AVM 5490 and BT Home Hub 5A.

The next commit converts the firmware used by this driver
to a package. Due to the fact that the driver is shipped
as a package the firmware is already available.
