Updated [1]. Differences with previous version:

- uses proplib(3) to query phyflags, and store the value in
brgphy_softc, like bge code does. bnx_softc should not be exposed to
brgphy(4) now.

- split if_bnxreg.h in two, with macros, device state, PCI bus stuff in
if_bnxvar.h, and only include if_bnxreg.h in brgphy.c

- set bits in 'mii_capabilities' so mii_phy_add_media() can be used to
attach BCM 5709S PHYs too (maximizes code reuse).

Re-tested, and works.

Unless someone has comments, I will commit in a few days (say: Thursday,
09).

If bnx(4) owners could test it, I would appreciate it, especially on BE
machines, like sparc64. I did my best to avoid breakage, but I can't
really confirm it (I don't own any Broadcom cards for bnx(4))
