eeprom: at24: Support custom device names for AT24 EEPROMs
By using the label property, a more descriptive name can be populated for AT24 EEPROMs NVMEM device. Update the AT24 driver to check to see if the label property is present and if so, use this as the name for NVMEM device. Please note that when the 'label' property is present for the AT24 EEPROM, we do not want the NVMEM driver to append the 'devid' to the name and so the nvmem_config.id is initialised to NVMEM_DEVID_NONE.
