net: uclass: Save generated ethernet MAC addresses to the environment
When a MAC address is randomly generated we currently only update the
appropriate data structure. For consistency and to re-align with
historic usage, it should be also saved to the appropriate environment
variable as well.

- Selecting this will allow the Ethernet interface to function
- even when the ethaddr variable for that interface is unset.
- A new MAC address will be generated on every boot and it will
- not be added to the environment.
