usb: typec: Add support for retimers
Introduce a retimer device class and associated functions that register and use retimer "switch" devices. These operate in a manner similar to the "mode-switch" and help configure retimers that exist between the Type-C connector and host controller(s). Type C ports can be linked to retimers using firmware node device references (again, in a manner similar to "mode-switch"). There are no new sysfs files being created; there is the new retimer class directory, but there are no class-specific files being created there.
