uio: dfl: add vendor-specific feature id

Add a Device Feature List (DFL) feature id as a generic mechanism
to expose a vendor-specific FPGA IP to user space. The feature id
is intended for use with IPs that do not need any kernel services
beyond exposure to user space through the UIO DFL driver.

The feature id is used in, e.g., Intel Oak Springs Canyon IPUs
to expose various IPs to user space, e.g., Network Controller
Sideband Interface (NC-SI), BaseNIC, and VirtIO management.

uio: dfl: add IOPLL user-clock feature id

Add a Device Feature List (DFL) feature id [1] for the configurable
IOPLL user clock source, which can be used to configure the clock
speeds that are used for RTL logic that is programmed into the
Partial Reconfiguration (PR) region of an FPGA.

The IOPLL user-space driver [2] contains frequency tables [3]
with the specific user clock frequencies for an implementation.

For each desired frequency, the table values are produced by calling
the quartus tool, the same tool that generates the IOPLL RTL logic.
The quartus tool allows the RTL designer to select different options
which can affect the table values. The table-driven, user-space
driver allows for supporting future, modified implementations and
provides users the ability to modify the IOPLL implementation.

uio: dfl: add HSSI subsystem feature id

Add the Device Feature List (DFL) feature id for the
High Speed Serial Interface (HSSI) Subsystem to the
table of ids supported by the uio_dfl driver.

The HSSI Subsystem is a configurable set of IP blocks
to be used as part of a Ethernet or PCS/FEC/PMA pipeline.
Like the Ethernet group used by the N3000 card, the HSSI
Subsystem does not fully implement a network device from
a Linux netdev perspective and is controlled and monitored
from user space software via the uio interface.

The Feature ID table of DFL can be found:

uio: uio_dfl: add userspace i/o driver for DFL bus

This patch supports the DFL drivers be written in userspace. This is
realized by exposing the userspace I/O device interfaces.

The driver now only binds the ether group feature, which has no irq. So
the irq support is not implemented yet.
