pwm: Add core infrastructure to allow atomic updates

Add an ->apply() method to the pwm_ops struct to allow PWM drivers to
implement atomic updates. This method is preferred over the ->enable(),
->disable() and ->config() methods if available.

Add the pwm_apply_state() function to the PWM user API.

Note that the pwm_apply_state() does not guarantee the atomicity of the
update operation, it all depends on the availability and implementation
of the ->apply() method.

pwm_enable/disable/set_polarity/config() are now implemented as wrappers
around the pwm_apply_state() function.

pwm_adjust_config() is allowing smooth handover between the bootloader
and the kernel. This function tries to adapt the current PWM state to
the PWM arguments coming from a PWM lookup table or a DT definition
without changing the duty_cycle/period proportion.
