gpio: Make it possible for consumers to enforce open drain
Some busses, like I2C, strictly need to have the line handled as open drain, i.e. not actively driven high. For this reason the i2c-gpio.c bit-banged I2C driver is reimplementing open drain handling outside of gpiolib. This is not very optimal. Instead make it possible for a consumer to explcitly express that the line must be handled as open drain instead of allowing local hacks papering over this issue. The descriptor tables, whether DT, ACPI or board files, should of course have flagged these lines as open drain. E.g.: enum gpio_lookup_flags GPIO_OPEN_DRAIN for a board file, or gpios = <&foo 42 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH|GPIO_OPEN_DRAIN>; in a device tree using <dt-bindings/gpio/gpio.h> But more often than not, these descriptors are wrong. So we need to make it possible for consumers to enforce this open drain behaviour. We now have two new enumerated GPIO descriptor config flags: GPIOD_OUT_LOW_OPEN_DRAIN and GPIOD_OUT_HIGH_OPEN_DRAIN that will set up the lined enforced as open drain as output low or high, using open drain (if the driver supports it) or using open drain emulation (setting the line as input to drive it high) from the gpiolib core.
