[PATCH v3 01/10] rtc: add dm_rtc_read helper and ->read method

[Rasmus Villemoes]

Some users may want to read multiple consecutive 8-bit
registers. Instead of each caller having to implement the loop,
provide a dm_rtc_read() helper. Also, allow a driver to provide a
->read method, which can be more efficient than reading one register
at a time.
