This patch adds more info to stmicro' Kconfig files in order to be clearer
that the driver can be used by ethernet cards based on 10/100/1000/EQOS
Synopsys IP Cores.
EQOS was also added stmmac/Kconfig Kconfig, since dwmac4 is in fact EQoS,
one of Synopsys Ethernet IPs. More info at:

This howto made sense in the 1990s when users had to manually configure
ISA cards with jumpers or vendor utilities, but with the implementation
of PCI it became increasingly less and less relevant, to the point where
it has been well over a decade since I last updated it. And there is
no value in anyone else taking over updating it either.
However the references to it continue to spread as boiler plate text
from one Kconfig file into the next. We are not doing end users any
favours by pointing them at this old document, so lets kill it with
fire, once and for all, to hopefully stop any further spread.
No code is changed in this commit, just Kconfig help text.

Based on finds for Stephen Rothwell, where current defconfig's
enable a ethernet driver and it is not compiled due to the newly
added NET_VENDOR_* component of Kconfig.
This patch enables all the "new" Kconfig options so that current
defconfig's will continue to compile the expected drivers. In
addition, by enabling all the new Kconfig options does not add
any un-expected options.

Move the STMicroelectronics driver into driver/net/ethernet/stmicro/ and
make the necessary Kconfig and Makefile changes.
