Like we do for charlcd, allow the configuration of the initial message
on line-display devices.

Always allocate a buffer for the currently displayed characters.
It makes the line display API simpler.

There is already the driver using character mapping table for
7 or 14 segment display. It is possible to override it. Make
the similar in the line display library to allow other drivers
to utilise the same functionality.

Currently the line display library doesn't scale in case we want to
provide more operations. Prepare the library to take a newly created
struct linedisp_ops that scales.

Avoid unnecessary pollution of the global symbol namespace by
moving library functions in to a specific namespace and import
that into the drivers that make use of the functions.

Do not imply that some of the generic headers may be always included.
Instead, include explicitly what we are direct user of.

kstrtox() may return different error codes.
Unshadow them in the ->store() callback to give better error report.
While at it, add missing kstrtox.h inclusion.

The absence of decrementation of linedisp_id is incorrect in two ways,
i.e. it may cause:
- an ID exhaustion
- (and if the above is addressed) a duplicate id number may be allocated
next time a device is added
Replace above mentioned approach by using IDA framework.

While there is no issue currently with the resources allocation,
the code may still be made more robust by deallocating message
in the ->release() callback.

If the message to display is longer than the number of characters that
the display can show, the message will be scrolled. Currently the
scroll rate is fixed, moving every 500 ms.
Add support for changing the scroll rate through a "scroll_step_ms"
device attribute in sysfs.

Extract the character line display core support from the simple ASCII
LCD driver for the MIPS Boston, Malta & SEAD3 development boards into
its own subdriver, so it can be reused for other displays.
As this moves the "message" device attribute in sysfs in a "linedisp.N"
subdirectory, a symlink is added to preserve backwards compatibility.
