The MDIO bus is supported but there are errors when trying to probe and
configure the external BCM5325E switch through B53 DSA.
Therefore, let's add basic ethernet (but working) support for now.

This adds experimental ethernet support for BCM6318, BCM6328, BCM6362, BCM6368
and BCM63268.
BCM6358 needs a different driver, so there's no support for now.
Working devices:
- Comtrend AR-5315u
- Comtrend AR-5387un
- Comtrend VR-3025u
- Comtrend VR-3032u
Not working devices:
- Netgear DGND3700 v2 (no idea on how the external switch is connected)
- Huawei HG556a ver B (BCM6358 needs a separate driveer)

So far, board.d files were having execute bit set and contained a
shebang. However, they are just sourced in board_detect, with an
apparantly unnecessary check for execute permission beforehand.
Replace this check by one for existance and make the board.d files
"normal" files, as would be expected in /etc anyway.
Note:
This removes an apparantly unused '#!/bin/sh /etc/rc.common' in
target/linux/bcm47xx/base-files/etc/board.d/01_network

Like done for several targets already, splitting base-files into
subtarget will provide smaller images due to more specific
distribution of files per subtarget and allow to use default cases
more effectively.

This target has full device tree support, thus reducing the number of
patches needed for bcm63xx, in which there's a patch for every board.
The intention is to start with a minimal amount of downstream patches and
start upstreaming all of them.
Current status:
- Enabling EHCI/OHCI on BCM6358 causes a kernel panic.
- BCM63268 lacks Timer Clocks/Reset support.
- No PCI/PCIe drivers.
- No ethernet drivers.
