This patch adds more info to stmicro' Kconfig files in order to be clearer
that the driver can be used by ethernet cards based on 10/100/1000/EQOS
Synopsys IP Cores.

EQOS was also added stmmac/Kconfig Kconfig, since dwmac4 is in fact EQoS,
one of Synopsys Ethernet IPs. More info at:
https://www.synopsys.com/dw/ipdir.php?ds=dwc_ether_qos
