[PATCH 1/2] of: net: Add helper function of_get_ethdev_label()

Adds a new helper function of_get_ethdev_label() which sets initial name of
specified netdev interface based on DT "label" property. It is same what is
doing DSA function dsa_port_parse_of() for DSA ports.

This helper function can be useful for drivers to make consistency between
DSA and netdev interface names.
