-Extend the sysfs ABI to allow exporting lines by their HW offsets

-The need to support the sysfs GPIO class is one of the main obstacles to
-removing the global GPIO numberspace from the kernel. In order to wean users
-off using global numbers from user-space, extend the existing interface with
-new per-gpiochip export/unexport attributes that allow to refer to GPIOs using
