[PATCH] gpio: Add gpio_request_by_line_name()

Add support for the upstream gpio-line-names property already described
in the common GPIO binding document[1]. The ability to search for a line
name allows boards to lift the implementation of common GPIO behaviours
away from specific line indexes on a GPIO controller.

Hi,

This patch is extracted from and motivated by a series adding run-time
control of FIT signature verification to u-boot in OpenBMC:

https://lore.kernel.org/openbmc/20220131012538.73021-1-andrew@aj.id.au/

Unfortunately the OpenBMC u-boot tree is quite a way behind on tracking
upstream and contains a bunch of out-of-tree work as well. As such I'm
looking to upstream the couple of changes that make sense against
master.

Please take a look!

Andrew
