gpiolib: allow to specify the firmware node in struct gpio_chip
Software nodes allow us to represent hierarchies for device components that don't have their struct device representation yet - for instance: banks of GPIOs under a common GPIO expander. The core gpiolib core however doesn't offer any way of passing this information from the drivers. This extends struct gpio_chip with a pointer to fwnode that can be set by the driver and used to pass device properties for child nodes. This is similar to how we handle device-tree sub-nodes with CONFIG_OF_GPIO enabled.
