Built-in Ethernet adapters support setting the mac address by means of a
ethaddr environment variable for each interface (ethaddr, eth1addr, eth2addr).
This adds similar support to the USB network side, using the names
usbethaddr, usbeth1addr, etc. They are kept separate since we don't want
a USB device taking the MAC address of a built-in device or vice versa.

This adds support for using USB Ethernet dongles in host mode. This is just
the framework - drivers will come later. A new config option called
CONFIG_USB_HOST_ETHER can be defined in board config files to switch this
on.
The was originally written by NVIDIA and was cleaned up for release by the
Chromium authors.
