Looking good @MrKevinWeiss |

Can we rerun 1 more time now that the kconfig checks are actually working? |

Contribution description
This models all IEEE 802.15.4 device drivers and the related modules (mostly netdev). Similarly to #17739, this modifies the related tests to avoid using the full GNRC stack. Some tests allow access to device-specific features (e.g., batmon in at86rf215), all these are kept.
A question regarding modelling + UI (maybe @jia200x has some insight): currently a radio can implement netdev or the radio HAL. In the second case, when the top level user (e.g. a network stack or the current tests) requires to interact via the netdev interface, the
netdev_ieee802154_submacmodule is required to fill the gap. So far, I added a symbol that indicates the presence of a radio HAL implementer (selected by the specific driver). Depending on whethernetdevis used, the submac module is used (ifnetdevis used, and a driver implements radio HAL -> bring submac). This has a shortcoming: if an application (or other module) wants to use two devices implementing different interfaces (netdev vs. HAL), the submac will be pulled. We could create an extra symbol (e.g.,USE_NETDEV_INTERFACE) that indicates that whatever network device you have, you want to interact using netdev, but I'm not sure that's the way. Thoughts?Testing procedure
