380639c7cc gpio: add generic single-register fixed-direction GPIO driver
Add a simple, generic, single register fixed-direction GPIO driver.
This is able to support a single register with a mixture of inputs
and outputs.

This is different from gpio-mmio and gpio-74xx-mmio:
* gpio-mmio doesn't allow a fixed direction, it assumes there is always
  a direction register.
* gpio-74xx-mmio only supports all-in or all-out setups
* gpio-74xx-mmio is DT only, this needs to support legacy too
* they don't double-read when getting the GPIO value, as required by
  some implementations that this driver supports
* we need to always do 32-bit reads, which bgpio doesn't guarantee
* the current output state may not be readable from the hardware
  register - reading may reflect input status but not output status.
