pwm: Provide a gpio device for waveform drivers

A PWM is a more general concept than an output-only GPIO. When using
duty_length = period_length the PWM looks like an active GPIO, with
duty_length = 0 like an inactive GPIO. With the waveform abstraction
there is enough control over the configuration to ensure that PWMs that
cannot generate a constant signal at both levels error out.

The pwm-pca9685 driver already provides a gpio chip. When this driver is
converted to the waveform callbacks, the gpio part can just be dropped.

+	  Most PWMs can emit both a constant active high and a constant active
+	  low signal and so they can be used as GPIO. Say Y here to let each
+	  PWM chip provide a GPIO chip and so be easily plugged into consumers
