net: ethtool: Allow passing a phy index for some commands

Some netlink commands are target towards ethernet PHYs, to control some
of their features. As there's several such commands, add the ability to
pass a PHY index in the ethnl request, which will populate the generic
ethnl_req_info with the passed phy_index.

Add a helper that netlink command handlers need to use to grab the
targeted PHY from the req_info. This helper needs to hold rtnl_lock()
while interacting with the PHY, as it may be removed at any point.
