Documentation: ACPI: DSD: describe additional MAC configuration

Document additional MAC configuration modes which can be processed
by the existing fwnode_ phylink helpers:

* "managed" standard ACPI _DSD property [1]
* "fixed-link" data-only subnode linked in the _DSD package via
  generic mechanism of the hierarchical data extension [2]

The "phy-mode" _DSD property is used to describe the connection to
the PHY. The valid values for "phy-mode" are defined in [4].
managed
-------
Optional property, which specifies the PHY management type.
The valid values for "managed" are defined in [4].
fixed-link
----------
The "fixed-link" is described by a data-only subnode of the
MAC port, which is linked in the _DSD package via
hierarchical data extension (UUID dbb8e3e6-5886-4ba6-8795-1319f52a966b
in accordance with [5] "_DSD Implementation Guide" document).
The subnode should comprise a required property ("speed") and
possibly the optional ones - complete list of parameters and
their values are specified in [4].
The following ASL example illustrates the usage of these properties.
