rS361462: Add TCA6416 GPIO expander support.

Summary

Add basic TCA6416 GPIO expander support. The driver handles
enabling and disabling pins, setting pin mode to IN and OUT and
toggling the pins. External interrupts are not supported.

151	Are all those extern devclass needed ? This might be our first gpio controller over i2c so maybe we need some new helpers for those.

151	These aren't needed. See sys/arm/nvidia/as3722_gpio.c for an example.

sys/dev/iicbus/tca6416.c
151	Exactly, The trick is that driver class name (the string in driver_t structure or first argument to DEFINE_CLASS_0) should be "gpio" while driver module name (first argument to DRIVER_MODULE) should be unique.
228	This is not a safe. Changing polarity inversion register may also changes output value for affected output pin which may drive board reset for example.
244	This looks like leftover of debug code.
290	and since many gpio controllers are required to operate before interrupts start, the only real solution is teaching iic controller how to do polled mode.
293	We have config_intrhook_oneshot() exactly for this design pattern.

Thanks for the comments, in the coming days I'll prepare v2 of this diff.

Removed code that needed interrupts to start before executing.

Hi, if you have any more comments or remarks, please let me know. Thanks.

LGTM

Would you mind moving this driver to a gpio subdirectory (sys/dev/iicbus/gpio) ?
We've been talking with @ian and @imp doing that for existing drivers.
Otherwise LGTM.
