Implement mdio_mutex_nested guard() variant.

guard() comes from the cleanup.h API that defines handy class to
handle the lifecycle of a critical section.

Several drivers use of the mutex_lock_nested()/mutex_unlock() function
call pair hence it is sensible to provide a variant of the generic
guard(mutex), guard(mdio_mutex_nested) so that drivers can be better
supported with the call variant "mutex_lock_nested(..., MDIO_MUTEX_NESTED)"

Example usage:

guard(mutex_lock_nested)(&bus->mdio_lock)
scoped_guard(mutex_lock_nested, &bus->mdio_lock) { ... }
