Subject: [PATCH v4 ethtool-next 2/2] add support for IEEE 802.3cg-2019 Clause 148 - PLCA RS

This patch adds support for the Physical Layer Collision Avoidance
Reconciliation Sublayer which was introduced in the IEEE 802.3
standard by the 802.3cg working group in 2019.

The ethtool interface has been extended as follows:
- show if the device supports PLCA when ethtool is invoked without FLAGS
- additionally show what PLCA version is supported
- show the current PLCA status
- add FLAGS for getting and setting the PLCA configuration

Please update also the manual page (ethtool.8.in), this should be done
whenever adding a new feature so that documented and implemented
features don't diverge.

The function names are misspelled here so that a build with

The compiler warns that idv may be uninitialized here. While it's in
wrong, AFAICS, not even gcc13 is smart enough to recognize that it's not
actually possible so let's initialize the variable to make it happy.
Also, both idv and val are used to store unsigned values so they should
be unsigned int.

Other than these, the patch looks good to me. The next branch already
has the UAPI updates needed for it so patch 1 won't be needed any more
if you rebase on top of current next.
