Add the CPU port to gswip_xrx200_phylink_get_caps() and
gswip_xrx300_phylink_get_caps(). It connects through a SoC-internal bus,
so the only allowed phy-mode is PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_INTERNAL.

This is for the case where those CPU port device tree properties are
present, right? In the device trees in current circulation they are not,
and DSA skips phylink registration.

Yes, as far as I know, this driver is mainly, if not exclusively, used in the
openWrt environment. These functions were already added here in Oct. 2022 [1].
