This patch introduces the usb charger driver based on usb gadget that
makes an enhancement to a power driver. It works well in practice but
that requires a system with suitable hardware.

The basic conception of the usb charger is that, when one usb charger
is added or removed by reporting from the usb gadget state change or
the extcon device state change, the usb charger will report to power
user to set the current limitation.

The usb charger will register notifiees on the usb gadget or the extcon
device to get notified the usb charger state. It also supplies the
notification mechanism to userspace When the usb charger state is changed.

Power user will register a notifiee on the usb charger to get notified
by status changes from the usb charger. It will report to power user
to set the current limitation when detecting the usb charger is added
or removed from extcon device state or usb gadget state.

This patch doesn't yet integrate with the gadget code, so some functions
which rely on the 'gadget' are not completed, that will be implemented
in the following patches.

Present state means we are charging. For charging error, I think it
can be exposed in power driver, which is more proper. Until now I only
see PRESENT and REMOVE state are useful.
