net: netdevsim: fix inconsistent carrier state after link/unlink

[ Upstream commit d83dddffe1904e4a576d11a541878850a8e64cd2 ]

This patch fixes the edge case behavior on ifup/ifdown and
linking/unlinking two netdevsim interfaces:

1. unlink two interfaces netdevsim1 and netdevsim2
2. ifdown netdevsim1
3. ifup netdevsim1
4. link two interfaces netdevsim1 and netdevsim2
5. (Now two interfaces are linked in terms of netdevsim peer, but
    carrier state of the two interfaces remains DOWN.)

This inconsistent behavior is caused by the current implementation,
which only cares about the "link, then ifup" order, not "ifup, then
link" order. This patch fixes the inconsistency by calling
netif_carrier_on() when two netdevsim interfaces are linked.

This patch fixes buggy behavior on NetworkManager-based systems which
causes the netdevsim test to fail with the following error:

  # timeout set to 600
  # selftests: drivers/net/netdevsim: peer.sh
  # 2025/12/25 00:54:03 socat[9115] W address is opened in read-write mode but only supports read-only
  # 2025/12/25 00:56:17 socat[9115] W connect(7, AF=2 192.168.1.1:1234, 16): Connection timed out
  # 2025/12/25 00:56:17 socat[9115] E TCP:192.168.1.1:1234: Connection timed out
  # expected 3 bytes, got 0
  # 2025/12/25 00:56:17 socat[9109] W exiting on signal 15
  not ok 13 selftests: drivers/net/netdevsim: peer.sh # exit=1

This patch also solves timeout on TCP Fast Open (TFO) test in
NetworkManager-based systems because it also depends on netdevsim's
carrier consistency.
