Expand the configuration API to allow dynamic runtime load and unload of
configurations and features.
On load, configurations and features are tagged with a "load owner" that
is used to determine sets that were loaded together in a given API call.
To unload the API uses the load owner to unload all elements previously
loaded by that owner.
The API also records the order in which different owners loaded
their elements into the system. Later loading configurations can use
previously loaded features, creating load dependencies. Therefore unload
is enforced strictly in the reverse order to load.
A load owner will be an additional loadable module, or a configuration
loaded via configfs.

Update the existing load API to introduce a "load owner" concept.
This allows the tracking of the loaded configurations and features against
the loading owner type, to allow later unload according to owner.
A list of loaded configurations by owner is created.
The load owner infrastructure will be used in following patches
to implement dynanic load and unload, alongside dependency tracking.

API for individual devices to register with the syscfg management
system is added.
Devices register with matching information, and any features or
configurations that match will be loaded into the device.
The feature and configuration loading is extended so that on load these
are loaded into any currently registered devices. This allows
configuration loading after devices have been registered.

Creates an system management API to allow complex configurations and
features to be programmed into a CoreSight infrastructure.
A feature is defined as a programming set for a device or class of
devices.
A configuration is a set of features across the system that are enabled
for a trace session.
The API will manage system wide configuration, and allow complex
programmed features to be added to individual device instances, and
provide for system wide configuration selection on trace capture
operations.
This patch creates the initial data object and the initial API for
loading configurations and features.
