Add support for Airoha AN7583 PCS. This use a new analog PHY
implementation that doesn't require manual calibration but makes use of
internal algo to lock to the center of the band EYE.

Is this PHY capable of other things? PCIE? USB?

I ask because a generic PHY driver is often used to represent the PHY,
and that can support PCIE, USB as well as networking.

Ethernet and PON serdes are only for Ethernet usage. pcs-usb is USB or
ethernet 2500base-x and pcs-pcie is the special thing described in the
other message.

I'm already using the PHY API where possible to configure the dedicated
mode and speed where the double usage is present.
