net: phy: microchip: Use genphy_soft_reset() to purge stale LPA bits

Enable .soft_reset for the LAN88xx PHY driver by assigning
genphy_soft_reset() to ensure that the phylib core performs a proper
soft reset during reconfiguration.

Previously, the driver left .soft_reset unimplemented, so calls to
phy_init_hw() (e.g., from lan88xx_link_change_notify()) did not fully
reset the PHY. As a result, stale contents in the Link Partner Ability
(LPA) register could persist, causing the PHY to incorrectly report
that the link partner advertised autonegotiation even when it did not.

Using genphy_soft_reset() guarantees a clean reset of the PHY and
corrects the false autoneg reporting in these scenarios.
