leds: add new LED_FUNCTION_PLAYER for player LEDs for game controllers. 

Player LEDs are commonly found on game controllers from Nintendo and Sony
to indicate a player ID across a number of LEDs. For example, "Player 2"
might be indicated as "-x--" on a device with 4 LEDs where "x" means on.

This patch introduces LED_FUNCTION_PLAYER1-5 defines to properly indicate
player LEDs from the kernel. Until now there was no good standard, which
resulted in inconsistent behavior across xpad, hid-sony, hid-wiimote and
other drivers. Moving forward new drivers should use LED_FUNCTION_PLAYERx.

Note: management of Player IDs is left to user space, though a kernel
driver may pick a default value.

Notice there's a list of functions in include/dt-bindings/leds/common.h .
* Gamepads and joysticks
Game controllers may feature LEDs to indicate a player number. This is commonly
used on game consoles in which multiple controllers can be connected to a system.
The "player LEDs" are then programmed with a pattern to indicate a particular
player. For example, a game controller with 4 LEDs, may be programmed with "x---"
to indicate player 1, "-x--" to indicate player 2 etcetera where "x" means on.
Input drivers can utilize the LED class to expose the individual player LEDs
of a game controller using the function "player".
Note: tracking and management of Player IDs is the responsibility of user space,
though drivers may pick a default value.
