[U-Boot] [PATCH 1/2] dm: i2c: add DM_I2C_REQ_ALIAS to make sequence number optional

For I2C (and some other uclasses), all the devices are required to
have their own request sequence numbers to use them.  Otherwise,
uclass_get_device_by_seq() fails to get them.  To specify those
numbers, we have to add aliases to device trees.  As a result, the
"aliases" nodes grow bigger and bigger as we support more and more
drivers in driver model.
(See arch/arm/dts/uniphier-ph1-pro4-ref.dts for example.)

It is true that the sequence number is useful for identifying a
device with the same number independently of the binding order, but
it is painful to add an alias to every device.

This commit intends to make this feature optional.
If CONFIG_DM_I2C_SEQ_ALIAS is not defined, uclass_get_device() is
called instead of uclass_get_device_by_seq().  So we do not have to
add aliases of I2C devices.

In most cases, this should work well enough because device trees are
scanned from top to bottom and we usually describe device nodes in
the order we expect for binding.
