Add support for LPTIMx_OUT triggers that can be found on some STM32
devices. These triggers can be used then by ADC or DAC.
Typical usage is to configure LPTimer as PWM output (via pwm-stm32-lp)
and have synchronised analog conversions with these triggers.

Timers IPs can be used to generate triggers for other IPs like
DAC or ADC.
Each trigger may result of timer internals signals like counter enable,
reset or edge, this configuration could be done through "master_mode"
device attribute.
Since triggers could be used by DAC or ADC their names are defined
in include/ nux/iio/timer/stm32-timer-trigger.h and is_stm32_iio_timer_trigger
function could be used to check if the trigger is valid or not.
"trgo" trigger have a "sampling_frequency" attribute which allow to configure
timer sampling frequency.
version 8:
- change kernel version from 4.10 to 4.11 in ABI documentation
version 7:
- remove all iio_device related code
- move driver into trigger directory
version 5:
- simplify tables of triggers
- only create an IIO device when needed
version 4:
- get triggers configuration from "reg" in DT
- add tables of triggers
- sampling frequency is enable/disable when writing in trigger
sampling_frequency attribute
- no more use of interruptions
version 3:
- change compatible to "st,stm32-timer-trigger"
- fix attributes access right
- use string instead of int for master_mode and slave_mode
- document device attributes in sysfs-bus-iio-timer-stm32
version 2:
- keep only one compatible
- use st,input-triggers-names and st,output-triggers-names
to know which triggers are accepted and/or create by the device

This patch is in response to that of
Gregor Boirie <gregor.boirie@parrot.com>
who proposed using a tight kthread within a device driver (be it with the
support factored out into a helper library) in order to basically spin as
fast as possible.
It is meant as a talking point rather than a formal proposal of the code
(though we are heading towards that I think).
Also gives people some working code to mess around with.
I proposed that this could be done with a trigger with a few constraints
and this is the proof (be it ugly) of that.
There are some constraints though, some of which we would want to relax
if this were to move forward.
* Will only run the thread part of the registered pollfunc. This is to
avoid the overhead of jumping in and out of interrupt context. Is the
overhead significant? Not certain but feels like it should be!
* This limitation precludes any device that 'must' do some work in
interrupt context. However, that is true of few if any drivers and
I suspect that any that do will be restricted to using triggers they
provide themselves. Usually we have a top half mainly to grab a
timestamp as soon after the dataready type signal as possible.

This patch registers a new IIO software trigger interrupt source
based on high resolution timers.
Notice that if configfs is enabled we create sampling_frequency
attribute allowing users to change hrtimer period (1/sampling_frequency).
The IIO hrtimer trigger has a long history, this patch is based on
an older version from Marten and Lars-Peter.

Keeping Makefile and Kconfig entries in alphabetical order usually works better
than just appending new entries at the end, since it reduces the amount of
conflicts. This patch adds a comment to the IIO Kconfig and Makefile files to
document that the entries should be kept in alphabetical order.
Also reorder those entries which weren't in alphabetical order yet.

This is now a very simple trigger indeed but useful in many common cases.

This simple driver is rather useful. No issues about its interface
have been raised for some time hence the proposal to move it out
of staging.
