leds: core: Introduce LED pattern trigger

This patch adds a new LED trigger that LED device can configure
to employ software or hardware pattern engine.

Consumers can write 'pattern' file to enable the software pattern
which alters the brightness for the specified duration with one
software timer.

Moreover consumers can write 'hw_pattern' file to enable the hardware
pattern for some LED controllers which can autonomously control
brightness over time, according to some preprogrammed hardware
patterns.

+Date:		September 2018
+KernelVersion:	4.20
+Description:
+		Specify a software pattern for the LED, that supports altering
+		the brightness for the specified duration with one software
+		timer. It can do gradual dimming and step change of brightness.
+
+		The pattern is given by a series of tuples, of brightness and
+		duration (ms). The LED is expected to traverse the series and
+		each brightness value for the specified duration. Duration of
+		0 means brightness should immediately change to new value, and
+		writing malformed pattern deactivates any active one.
+
+		1. For gradual dimming, the dimming interval now is set as 50
+		milliseconds. So the tuple with duration less than dimming
+		interval (50ms) is treated as a step change of brightness,
+		i.e. the subsequent brightness will be applied without adding
+		intervening dimming intervals.
+
+		The gradual dimming format of the software pattern values should be:
+		"brightness_1 duration_1 brightness_2 duration_2 brightness_3
+		duration_3 ...". For example:
+
+		echo 0 1000 255 2000 > pattern
+
+		It will make the LED go gradually from zero-intensity to max (255)
+		intensity in 1000 milliseconds, then back to zero intensity in 2000
+		milliseconds:
+
+		LED brightness
+		    ^
+		255-|       / \            / \            /
+		    |      /    \         /    \         /
+		    |     /       \      /       \      /
+		    |    /          \   /          \   /
+		  0-|   /             \/             \/
+		    +---0----1----2----3----4----5----6------------> time (s)
+
+		2. To make the LED go instantly from one brigntess value to another,
+		we should use use zero-time lengths (the brightness must be same as
+		the previous tuple's). So the format should be:
+		"brightness_1 duration_1 brightness_1 0 brightness_2 duration_2
+		brightness_2 0 ...". For example:
+
+		echo 0 1000 0 0 255 2000 255 0 > pattern
+
+		It will make the LED stay off for one second, then stay at max brightness
+		for two seconds:
+
+		LED brightness
+		    ^
+		255-|        +---------+    +---------+
+		    |        |         |    |         |
+		    |        |         |    |         |
+		    |        |         |    |         |

+Description:
+		Specify a hardware pattern for the LED, for LED hardware that
+		supports autonomously controlling brightness over time, according
+		to some preprogrammed hardware patterns. It deactivates any active
+		software pattern.
+
+		Since different LED hardware can have different semantics of

+		file.
