backlight: introduce backlight_device_registered
Introduce a new API for modules to query if a specific type of backlight device has been registered. This is useful for some backlight device provider module (e.g. ACPI video) to know if a native control interface(e.g. the interface created by i915) is available and then do things accordingly (e.g. avoid registering its own on Win8 systems).
