Move the initialization of the ethernet devices out of the new_netif() function. Indeed, new_netif() accepts a struct device argument, which is expected to be valid and active. The activation and selection of this device are achieved by eth_init() (on first time the network stack is used) and eth_set_current(). This is what takes care of the ethrotate and ethact environment variables. Therefore, move these calls to a new function: net_lwip_set_current(), and use it whenever a net-lwip command is run.
This patch hopefully fixes the incorrect net-lwip behavior observed on boards with multiple ethernet interfaces [1]. Tested on an i.MX8MPlus EVK equipped wih two ethernet ports. The dhcp command succeeds whether the cable is plugged into the first or second port.
