net: stmmac: drop gso_enabled_types and rely on netdev features

The gso_enabled_types field is used by stmmac_xmit() to decide whether a
GSO skb should be passed to stmmac_tso_xmit(). It is updated in
stmmac_set_features() based solely on NETIF_F_TSO, so disabling IPv4
TSO while keeping IPv6 TSO (NETIF_F_TSO6) enabled zeroes the mask. As a
result IPv6 GSO frames, which the networking stack still generates since
NETIF_F_TSO6 is enabled, fall through to the non-TSO xmit path where
they are not handled.

The networking stack already manages the GSO logic: a GSO skb is only
delivered to the driver when the matching offload feature (NETIF_F_TSO,
NETIF_F_TSO6 or NETIF_F_GSO_UDP_L4) is enabled, otherwise the frame is
segmented in software before reaching ndo_start_xmit().
stmmac_features_check() also validates each GSO frame against the TSO
hardware constraints and falls back to software GSO when they are not met.

Drop the gso_enabled_types field and rely on skb_is_gso() in
stmmac_xmit() instead, which correctly routes IPv6 GSO frames to the TSO
path when NETIF_F_TSO is disabled. This also removes the data race
between stmmac_set_gso_types(), called from the feature-set path, and
the lockless read of gso_enabled_types in stmmac_xmit().
