mfd: Add Apple Silicon System Management Controller
The System Management Controller (SMC) on Apple Silicon machines is a
piece of hardware that exposes various functionalities such as
temperature sensors, voltage/power meters, shutdown/reboot handling,
GPIOs and more.
Communication happens via a shared mailbox using the RTKit protocol
which is also used for other co-processors. The SMC protocol then allows
reading and writing many different keys which implement the various
features. The MFD core device handles this protocol and exposes it
to the sub-devices.
Some of the sub-devices are potentially also useful on pre-M1 Apple
machines and support for SMCs on these machines can be added at a later
time.
