dl2k: Add support for IP1000A-based cards



Add support for IP1000A chips to dl2k driver.
IP1000A chip looks like a TC9020 with integrated PHY.

This allows IP1000A chips to work reliably because the ipg driver is
buggy - it loses packets under load and then completely stops
transmitting data.

Tested with Asus NX1101 v2.0 at 10, 100 and 1000Mbps:
vendor=0x13f0 device=0x1023 (rev 0x41)
subsystem vendor=0x1043 device=0x8180

MAC address registers access needed to be changed from 8-bit to 16-bit
because 8-bit does not work on IP1000A. 8-bit access is not even
allowed in the TC9020 datasheet (although it worked). 16-bit access
works on both.

Tested that it does not break D-Link DGE-550T (DL-2000 chip, probably
a rebranded TC9020):
vendor=0x1186 device=0x4000 (rev 0x0c)
subsystem vendor=0x1186 device=0x4000
