HW support of ptp/timesync solutions in network PHY chips can be
achieved with two different approaches, the timestamp maybe latched
either in the beginning or after the Start of Frame Delimiter (SFD) [1].
Allow ptp device drivers to provide user with control over the timestamp
latch point.

v3:
- move new enum ptp_ts_point to uapi ptp_clock.h and add NONE value to
indicate that the timestamp latch point was not provided by the HW,
allow further changes to ethtool netlink interface exstensions.
