arch/arm/stm32h7: poll MDIO completion in microseconds, not 5 ms steps

stm32_c22_read() and stm32_c22_write() waited for the MACMDIOAR busy bit
with up_mdelay(5) between checks. A Clause 22 frame takes about 30 us,
so the first check always sees the bus busy and every PHY register
access costs a 5 ms busy-wait, roughly 150 times the transfer.

stm32_phyinit() waits for link-up with PHY_RETRY_TIMEOUT (6552) MSR
reads. With no cable attached that is 33 s of CPU spent in
up_mdelay() inside ifup, with the network lock held: on an STM32H753
the netinit thread pinned the core at 44% for the first 65 s after
boot and every socket operation on other threads blocked until it gave
up. Before the MDIO bus refactor, stm32_phyread() polled the busy bit
in a tight loop.

Poll every 10 us instead, with the timeout expressed in microseconds so
the total bound stays at 10 ms, and report the timeout from the result
rather than the loop counter so a transfer that completes on the last
iteration is not logged as timed out.
