[PATCH v12 14/15] net/enetc4: enable Tx PAUSE via VF Rx congestion mode

When the PF negotiates TX PAUSE on the port it signals this to the VF
via BIT(1) of the PF-to-VF link status mailbox message. The VF PMD must
respond by setting RBMR_CM (BIT(4)) on all active RX rings so the MAC
emits PAUSE frames on ingress pressure.

Add ENETC_RBMR_CM register definition, ENETC_LINK_TX_PAUSE bitmask,
and tx_pause_active state flag. Add enetc4_vf_set_congestion_mode() to
update all active RX rings and persist the state for rings started
later. Hook it into both the interrupt and poll link-update paths, and
apply the saved state in rx_queue_setup() and rx_queue_start().

RX PAUSE (honoring received PAUSE frames) is handled at the MAC level
by the PF and requires no VF PMD changes.
