[PATCH v3 2/3] gpio: search gpio-line-names property in dm_gpio_lookup_name

In scripts as well as interactively, it's much nicer to be able to
refer to GPIOs via their names defined in the device tree property
"gpio-line-names", instead of the rather opaque names derived from the
bank name with a _xx suffix. E.g.
gpio read factory_reset FACTORY_RESET
if test $factory_reset = 1 ; then ...
versus
gpio read factory_reset gpio at 481ac000_16
if test $factory_reset = 1 ; then ...
This is also consistent with the move on the linux/userspace side towards
using line names instead of legacy chip+offset or the even more legacy
global gpio numbering in sysfs.
As dev_read_stringlist_search() depends on both OF_CONTROL and
OF_LIBFDT (which matters for the SPL case), we need some .config
conditional. However, it only adds about ~50 bytes of code to U-Boot
proper, and dm_gpio_lookup_name() most often ends up being GC'ed for
SPL, thus adds no overhead there, so for now make it a hidden symbol
which is merely a convenient shorthand for
CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(OF_CONTROL) && CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(OF_LIBFDT).
