net: ethtool: Add attributes for cable test TDR data

Some Ethernet PHYs can return the raw time domain reflectromatry data.
Add the attributes to allow this data to be requested and returned via
netlink ethtool.

Report what the PHY actually used for start/stop/step.

CABLE_TEST TDR
==============
Start a cable test and report raw TDR data
Request contents:
==================================== ====== ==========================
``ETHTOOL_A_CABLE_TEST_TDR_HEADER`` nested request header
==================================== ====== ==========================
Notification contents:
Raw TDR data is gathered by sending a pulse down the cable and
recording the amplitude of the reflected pulse for a given distance.
It can take a number of seconds to collect TDR data, especial if the
full 100 meters is probed at 1 meter intervals. When the test is
started a notification will be sent containing just
ETHTOOL_A_CABLE_TEST_TDR_STATUS with the value
ETHTOOL_A_CABLE_TEST_NTF_STATUS_STARTED.
When the test has completed a second notification will be sent
containing ETHTOOL_A_CABLE_TEST_TDR_STATUS with the value
ETHTOOL_A_CABLE_TEST_NTF_STATUS_COMPLETED and the TDR data.
The message may optionally contain the amplitude of the pulse send
down the cable. This is measured in mV. A reflection should not be
bigger than transmitted pulse.
Before the raw TDR data should be an ETHTOOL_A_CABLE_TDR_NEST_STEP
nest containing information about the distance along the cable for the
first reading, the last reading, and the step between each
reading. Distances are measured in centimeters. These should be the
exact values the PHY used. These may be different to what the user
requested, if the native measurement resolution is greater than 1 cm.
For each step along the cable, a ETHTOOL_A_CABLE_TDR_NEST_AMPLITUDE is
used to report the amplitude of the reflection for a given pair.
