can: dev: add generic function can_eth_ioctl_hwts()

Tools based on libpcap (such as tcpdump) expect the SIOCSHWTSTAMP
ioctl call to be supported. This is also specified in the kernel doc
[1]. The purpose of this ioctl is to toggle the hardware timestamps.

Currently, CAN devices which support hardware timestamping have those
always activated. can_eth_ioctl_hwts() is a dumb function that will
always succeed when requested to set tx_type to HWTSTAMP_TX_ON or
rx_filter to HWTSTAMP_FILTER_ALL.
