gpio: add userspace ABI for GPIO line information
This adds a GPIO line ABI for getting name, label and a few select
flags from the kernel.
This hides the kernel internals and only tells userspace what it
may need to know: the different in-kernel consumers are masked
behind the flag "kernel" and that is all userspace needs to know.
However electric characteristics like active low, open drain etc
are reflected to userspace, as this is important information.
We provide information on all lines on all chips, later on we will
likely add a flag for the chardev consumer so we can filter and
display only the lines userspace actually uses in e.g. lsgpio,
but then we first need an ABI for userspace to grab and use
(get/set/select direction) a GPIO line.
Sample output from "lsgpio" on ux500:
GPIO chip: gpiochip7, "8011e000.gpio", 32 GPIO lines
line 0: unnamed unlabeled
line 1: unnamed unlabeled
(...)
line 25: unnamed "SFH7741 Proximity Sensor" [kernel output open-drain]
line 26: unnamed unlabeled
(...)
