gpio: gpio-by-pinctrl: add pinctrl based generic GPIO driver

The ARM SCMI pinctrl protocol allows GPIO access.  Instead of creating
a new SCMI GPIO driver, this driver is a generic GPIO driver that uses
standard pinctrl interfaces.

+	  Support for generic GPIO handling based on top of pin control.
+	  Traditionally, firmware creates a GPIO interface or a pin
+	  controller interface and we have a driver to support it.  But
+	  in SCMI, the pin control interface is generic and we can
+	  create a simple GPIO device based on the pin control interface
+	  without doing anything custom.
