net: Update hardware MAC address if it changes in env
When the ethaddr changes in the env, the hardware should also be updated so that MAC filtering will work properly without resetting U-Boot. Also remove the manual calls to set the hwaddr that was included in a few drivers as a result of the framework not doing it.
