net/hns3: support backplane media type

The 802.11 physical PMA sub-layer defines three media: copper, fiber and
backplane. For PMD, the backplane is similar to the fiber, the main
differences are that backplane doesn't have optical module.

Because the interface of firmware fiber is also applicable to the
backplane, this patch supports the backplane only through simple
extension.
