lan78xx already calls skb_tx_timestamp() in its lan78xx_start_xmit().
Override .get_ts_info to also advertise this capability
(SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_SOFTWARE) via ethtool.

Notes:
The main motivation for this patch was that e.g. linuxptp refuses
to start if the driver lacks support for the required timestamping
features.
I also recognized that many usb ethernet drivers which use the usbnet
infrastructure do not override .get_ts_info accordingly, despite calling
skb_tx_timestamp() indirectly in their .ndo_start_xmit handler
via usbnet_start_xmit().
For most of them the .get_ts_info override from usbnet is lost when
they override .ethtool_ops again.
Should they all receive a similar patch?
