net: lan743x: permit VLAN-tagged packets up to configured MTU

VLAN-tagged interfaces on lan743x devices were previously unreachable via
SSH and failed to respond to large ping packets (e.g. "ping -s 1469" given
MTU=1500). In these scenarios, "ethtool -S" reports non-zero "RX Oversize
Frame Errors". According to Microchip AN2948, the MAC_RX FSE (VLAN field
size enforcement) bit determines whether frames with VLAN tags exceeding
the base MTU plus tag length are discarded.

The driver must set the MAC_RX.FSE bit before setting MAC_RX.RXEN to allow
VLAN-tagged frames up to the interface MTU, preventing them from being
treated as oversized. As a result, both the base and VLAN-tagged interfaces
can use the same MTU without receive errors.
