bootcount: add uclass for bootcount
The original bootcount methods do not provide an interface to DM and
rely on a static configuration for I2C devices (e.g. bus, chip-addr,
etc. are configured through defines statically). On a modern system
that exposes multiple devices in a DTS-configurable way, this is less
than optimal and a interface to DM-based devices will be desirable.
This adds a simple driver that is DM-aware and configurable via DTS.
If ambiguous (i.e. multiple bootcount-devices are present) the
/chosen/u-boot,bootcount-device property can be used to select one
bootcount device.
Initially, this provides support for the following DM devices:
* RTC devices
