iio: gyro: Add driver for the MPU-3050 gyroscope
This adds a new driver for the Invensense MPU-3050 gyroscope. This driver is based on information from the rough input driver in drivers/input/misc/mpu3050.c and the scratch misc driver posted by Nathan Royer in 2011. Some years have passed but this is finally a fully-fledged driver for this gyroscope. It was developed and tested on the Qualcomm APQ8060 Dragonboard. The driver supports both raw and buffered input. It also supports the internal trigger mechanism by registering a trigger that can fire in response to the internal sample engine of the component. In addition to reading out the gyroscope sensor values, the driver also supports reading the temperature from the sensor. The driver currently only supports I2C but the MPU-3050 can also be used from SPI, so the I2C portions are split in their own file and we just use regmap to access all registers, so it will be trivial to plug in SPI support if/when someone has a system requiring this.
