ixgbe: Create separate media type for CX4 adapters



Currently the media type detection for CX4 adapters lumps them into a
type of fiber.  This causes some strange fallout when firmware verification
is done on the NIC, and certain fiber NIC rules get enforced incorrectly.

This patch introduces a new media type for CX4, and puts both 82598 and
82599 CX4 adapters into this bucket.
