net: xilinx: tsn: add TSN endpoint wrapper driver

This adds a thin wrapper platform driver for the AMD/Xilinx TSN Endpoint
Ethernet MAC IP node. The wrapper enables the six IP-wide clocks
described in the device tree and then populates the DT sub-nodes so each
one can bind to its own driver.

A couple of questions on the new Kconfig text and on the DT properties
the wrapper consumes.

[Severity: Low]
Is the help text accurate at this point in the series?  It says the
option "provides the wrapper device and the endpoint MAC that connects
the IP to the host CPU", but the Makefile added by this patch builds only
the wrapper object:

  xilinx_tsn-y := xilinx_tsn_main.o

and tsn_drivers[] registers only &tsn_driver, which matches
"xlnx,tsn-endpoint-ethernet-mac-3.0".  No driver in the tree matches the
sub-node compatibles at this commit, so devm_of_platform_populate() in
tsn_ip_probe() creates child platform devices that cannot bind, and
enabling the symbol here yields enabled clocks but no netdev.

The endpoint MAC part is resolved by later patches in this same series:
by the end of the series the Makefile also builds xilinx_tsn_ep.o,
tsn_drivers[] gains &xlnx_tsn_ep_driver, and xilinx_tsn_ep.c matches
".compatible = \"xlnx,tsn-ep-mac\"", so this is only a transient
mismatch between patches.

The remaining sentence about the "companion DSA driver" refers to
something that is not in-tree at any point of this series.  Could that
sentence be dropped or reworded until the DSA driver lands?

[Severity: Low]
The binding
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/xlnx,tsn-endpoint-ethernet-mac.yaml
lists xlnx,num-priorities (uint32, 2..8) in the required: list for the
"xlnx,tsn-endpoint-ethernet-mac-3.0" node:

  xlnx,num-priorities:
    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32
    minimum: 2
    maximum: 8

tsn_ip_probe() is the only driver matching that compatible here, and it
does devm_kzalloc(), devm_clk_bulk_get(), clk_bulk_prepare_enable(),
devm_add_action_or_reset() and devm_of_platform_populate() without any
of_property_read_u32(), so the mandatory property is neither read nor
range-checked.

A later patch in this series ("net: xilinx: tsn: parse endpoint DMA
channel configuration") does consume it from the parent IP node in
xlnx_tsn_ep_probe():

  ret = of_property_read_u32(ip_np, "xlnx,num-priorities", &num_prio);
  ...
  if (num_tx != num_prio)
          return dev_err_probe(dev, -EINVAL, ...);

so the binding/driver mismatch only exists between patches of this
series.  Was leaving the property unconsumed by the wrapper itself
intentional?
