cxl: add a firmware update mechanism using the sysfs firmware loader

The sysfs based firmware loader mechanism was created to easily allow
userspace to upload firmware images to FPGA cards. This also happens to
be pretty suitable to create a user-initiated but kernel-controlled
firmware update mechanism for CXL devices, using the CXL specified
mailbox commands.

Since firmware update commands can be long-running, and can be processed
in the background by the endpoint device, it is desirable to have the
ability to chunk the firmware transfer down to smaller pieces, so that
one operation does not monopolize the mailbox, locking out any other
long running background commands entirely - e.g. security commands like
'sanitize' or poison scanning operations.

The firmware loader mechanism allows a natural way to perform this
chunking, as after each mailbox command, that is restricted to the
maximum mailbox payload size, the cxl memdev driver relinquishes control
back to the fw_loader system and awaits the next chunk of data to
transfer. This opens opportunities for other background commands to
access the mailbox and send their own slices of background commands.

Add the necessary helpers and state tracking to be able to perform the
'Get FW Info', 'Transfer FW', and 'Activate FW' mailbox commands as
described in the CXL spec. Wire these up to the firmware loader
callbacks, and register with that system to create the memX/firmware/
sysfs ABI.
