Integrate the GT24C256C EEPROM via I2C to enable access to
board-specific non-volatile data.

Also, define an nvmem-layout to expose structured regions within the
EEPROM, allowing consumers to retrieve configuration data such as
Ethernet MAC addresses via the nvmem subsystem.

I'm not super happy that this would be the only line of defense, but
you probably want to add 'read-only' to the eeprom node (or not)
The Ethernet interface requires both read and write access at the driver level
to store and retrieve MAC address and related data; therefore 'read-only' is not
added here.
