Setting exact link speed makes sense if auto-negotiation is

Hi Andrew,
Fixed link speed is not supported by all PMDs and this change is breaking them
to set the speed in testpmd.
Not all. sfc definitely supports it.
It looks like bnxt, e1000, igb support it as well.
As long as device speed set correct, I believe the command doesn't really care
about if link mode is auto-negotiation or not.
Sometimes it is really important to disable auto-negotiation.
I am for reverting this commit, is there any objection to revert it?
cc'ing Wenjie who reported the issue.
May be I misunderstood the purpose of the command.
Typically if someone wants to set link speed, it is assumed that
auto-negotiation should be disabled since user specifies what he really
wants.
Of course, it is still valid request to keep auto-negotiation enabled, but
limit set of advertised speeds (may be keep only one).
So, I'm not happy to revert it completely. There is an option to revert
to old
behaviour and add optional argument to disable auto-negotiation, but I
can't say that I like it, since it would make sense if the command
allows more
than one speed to be advertised (to be auto-negotiated). If it is only
one speed,
the default should be autoneg disabled.
Anyway documentation of the command should be improved.
Andrew.
