i2c: Add detection capability to new-style drivers

Add a mechanism to let new-style i2c drivers optionally autodetect
devices they would support on selected buses and ask i2c-core to
instantiate them. This is a replacement for legacy i2c drivers, much
cleaner.

Where drivers had to implement both a legacy i2c_driver and a
new-style i2c_driver so far, this mechanism makes it possible to get
rid of the legacy i2c_driver and implement both enumerated and
detected device support with just one (new-style) i2c_driver.

Here is a quick conversion guide for these drivers, step by step:

* Delete the legacy driver definition, registration and removal.
  Delete the attach_adapter and detach_client methods of the legacy
  driver.

* Change the prototype of the legacy detect function from
    static int foo_detect(struct i2c_adapter *adapter, int address, int kind);
  to
    static int foo_detect(struct i2c_client *client, int kind,
    			  struct i2c_board_info *info);

* Set the new-style driver detect callback to this new function, and
  set its address_data to &addr_data (addr_data is generally provided
  by I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD.)

* Add the appropriate class to the new-style driver. This is
  typically the class the legacy attach_adapter method was checking
  for. Class checking is now mandatory (done by i2c-core.) See
  <linux/i2c.h> for the list of available classes.

* Remove the i2c_client allocation and freeing from the detect
  function. A pre-allocated client is now handed to you by i2c-core,
  and is freed automatically.

* Make the detect function fill the type field of the i2c_board_info
  structure it was passed as a parameter, and return 0, on success. If
  the detection fails, return -ENODEV.

Device Detection (Standard driver model)
----------------------------------------
Sometimes you do not know in advance which I2C devices are connected to
a given I2C bus. This is for example the case of hardware monitoring
devices on a PC's SMBus. In that case, you may want to let your driver
detect supported devices automatically. This is how the legacy model
was working, and is now available as an extension to the standard
driver model (so that we can finally get rid of the legacy model.)
You simply have to define a detect callback which will attempt to
identify supported devices (returning 0 for supported ones and -ENODEV
for unsupported ones), a list of addresses to probe, and a device type
(or class) so that only I2C buses which may have that type of device
connected (and not otherwise enumerated) will be probed. The i2c
core will then call you back as needed and will instantiate a device
for you for every successful detection.
Note that this mechanism is purely optional and not suitable for all
devices. You need some reliable way to identify the supported devices
(typically using device-specific, dedicated identification registers),
otherwise misdetections are likely to occur and things can get wrong
quickly.
