staging: fieldbus: anybus-s: support the Arcx anybus controller

Add a driver for the Arcx anybus controller.

This device implements two Anybus-S hosts (buses),
and connects to the SoC via a parallel memory bus.
There is also a CAN power readout, unrelated to the Anybus,
modelled as a regulator.

staging: fieldbus: anybus-s: support HMS Anybus-S bus

The Anybus-S/Anybus-M is a series of interchangeable fieldbus communication
modules featuring on board memory and processing power. All software and
hardware functionality required to communicate on the fieldbus is
incorporated in the module itself, allowing the application to focus on
other tasks.

Typical applications are frequency inverters, HMI and visualization
devices, instruments, scales, robotics, PLC’s and intelligent measuring
devices.

staging: add Fieldbus Device subsystem.

Fieldbus device (client) adapters allow data exchange with a PLC aka.
"Fieldbus Controller" over a fieldbus (Profinet, FLNet, etc.)

They are typically used when a Linux device wants to expose itself
as an actuator, motor, console light, switch, etc. over the fieldbus.

This framework is designed to provide a generic interface to Fieldbus
Devices from both the Linux Kernel and the userspace.
