net: lan966x: do not inject uninitialised bytes past skb->len

lan966x_port_ifh_xmit() writes the frame to the injection FIFO one
32-bit word at a time, and pads frames shorter than 60 bytes with zero
words.

Before this patch, the last word is loaded whole even when skb->len is
not a multiple of four, so 1 to 3 bytes past the end of the frame are
read. For a frame shorter than 60 bytes those bytes are also
transmitted, as VLD_BYTES marks the whole last word valid and the
padding starts at the next word.

Write the trailing bytes from a zeroed word. The number of words written
and VLD_BYTES are unchanged.

Found by an AI code review agent. Reproduced on a lan9668 board with
register injection, by sending a
57 byte frame and capturing it on the link partner: byte 57 of the
padded frame was not zero. With the fix all padding bytes are zero.
