5898bd667a macsec: fix input of 'port', improve documentation of 'address'
remove hardcoded base 10 parsing of 'port' parameter, update man page
and fix usage() functions as well. Fix misleading line in man page that
theoretically allowed specifying 'port' keyword right after 'sci' keyword.
Provide documentation of 'address' parameter in man pages and in usage()
functions as well.

89bb6e673a macsec: cipher and icvlen can be set separately
since kernel driver has valid default values for 'cipher' and 'icvlen',
there is no need for requiring users to specify both of them when a new
link is added. Also, prompt an error message and exit with appropriate
exit status in case of unsupported cipher suite.
