[PATCH 1/3] usb: onboard-hub: add driver to manage onboard hub supplies

The main issue the driver addresses is that a USB hub needs to be
powered before it can be discovered. This is often solved by using
"regulator-always-on".

This driver is inspired by the Linux v6.1 driver. It only enables (or
disables) the hub vdd (3v3) supply, so it can be enumerated.
Scanning of the device tree is done in a similar manner to the sandbox,
by the usb-uclass. DT part looks like:

&usbh_ehci {
	...
	#address-cells = <1>;
	#size-cells = <0>;
	hub at 1 {
		compatible = "usb424,2514";
		reg = <1>;
		vdd-supply = <&v3v3>;
	};
};

When the bus gets probed, the driver is automatically probed/removed from
the bus tree, as an example on stm32:
STM32MP> usb start
starting USB...
STM32MP> dm tree
 Class     Index  Probed  Driver                Name
-----------------------------------------------------------
 usb           0  [ + ]   ehci_generic          |   |-- usb at 5800d000

 usb_hub       1  [ + ]   usb_hub               |   |       `-- usb_hub

STM32MP> usb tree
USB device tree:
  1  Hub (480 Mb/s, 0mA)
  |  u-boot EHCI Host Controller
  |
  +-2  Hub (480 Mb/s, 2mA)
