mesh: Update the behavior of --io option

This aligns the behavior of command line option --io to
add new "auto" value and modify the behavior of "generic"
value:

*auto* - Use first available controller: via MGMT interface
if kernel supports it, otherwise, via raw HCI socket (i.e.,
default to *generic*).

*generic:[hci]<index>* - Use generic HCI io on interface hci<index>

The default value is now *auto*, whereas *generic* is used
only if the specific HCI controller is explicitly specified.
