drivers/net: Kconfig & Makefile cleanup
The is does a general cleanup of the drivers/net/ Kconfig and Makefile. This patch create a "core" option and places all the networking core drivers into this option (default is yes for this option). In addition, it alphabitizes the Kconfig driver options. As a side cleanup, found that the arcnet, token ring, and PHY Kconfig options were a tri-state option and should have been a bool option.
