net: dsa: felix: re-enable TAS guard band mode

Commit 316bcff ("net: dsa: felix: disable always guard band bit for
TAS config") disabled the guard band and broke 802.3Qbv compliance.

There are two issues here:
 (1) Without the guard band the end of the scheduling window could be
     overrun by a frame in transit.
 (2) Frames that don't fit into a configured window will still be sent.

The reason for both issues is that the switch will schedule the _start_
of a frame transmission inside the predefined window without taking the
length of the frame into account. Thus, we'll need the guard band which
will close the gate early, so that a complete frame can still be sent.
Revert the commit and add a note.
