  SVN rev 224342 on 2011-07-25 17:18:46Z by marius
  
  MFC: r221954
  
  When setting media always and not just in case of switching to IFM_AUTO
  clear the options of the current media, i.e. only inherit the instance,
  which matches what NetBSD does. Without this it's really non-intuitive
  that the following sequence:
          ifconfig bge0 media 1000baseT mediaopt full-duplex
          ifconfig bge0 media 100baseTX
  results in 100baseTX full-duplex to be set or that:
          ifconfig bge0 media autoselect mediaopt flowcontrol
          ifconfig bge0 media 1000baseT mediaopt full-duplex
  tries to set 1000baseT full-duplex with flowcontrol, which isn't suported
  und thus fails while the following:
          ifconfig re0 media 1000baseT mediaopt flowcontrol,full-duplex
          ifconfig re0 media autoselect
  just switches to autoselection without flowcontrol.
