In some subsystems (eg. CAN) the physical layer capabilities are the limiting factor in the datarate of the device. Typically, the physical layer transceiver does not provide a way to discover this limitation at runtime. Thus this information needs to be represented as a phy attribute which is read from the device tree. Therefore, add an optional max_bitrate attribute to the generic phy sybsystem. Also add the complementary API which enables the consumer to get max_bitrate.
