pwm: Send a uevent on the pwmchip device upon channel sysfs (un)export

This patch sends a uevent (KOBJ_CHANGE) on the pwmchipN device,
everytime a pwmX channel has been exported/unexported via sysfs. This
allows udev to implement rules on such events, like:

SUBSYSTEM=="pwm*", PROGRAM="/bin/sh -c '\
        chown -R root:gpio /sys/class/pwm && chmod -R 770 /sys/class/pwm;\
        chown -R root:gpio
/sys/devices/platform/soc/*.pwm/pwm/pwmchip* && chmod -R 770
/sys/devices/platform/soc/*.pwm/pwm/pwmchip*\
'"

This is a replacement patch for commit 7e5d1fd7 ("pwm: Set class for
exported channels in sysfs"), see [1].

basic testing:
$ udevadm monitor --environment &
$ echo 0 > /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/export
KERNEL[197.321736] change   /devices/.../pwm/pwmchip0 (pwm)
ACTION=change
DEVPATH=/devices/.../pwm/pwmchip0
EXPORT=pwm0
SEQNUM=2045
SUBSYSTEM=pwm
