acpi/irq: Implement helper to create hierachical domains

ACPI permits arbitrary producer->consumer interrupt links to be
described in AML, which means a topology such as the following
is perfectly legal:

  Device (EXIU) {
    Name (_HID, "SCX0008")
    Name (_UID, Zero)
    Name (_CRS, ResourceTemplate () {
      ...
    })
  }

  Device (GPIO) {
    Name (_HID, "SCX0007")
    Name (_UID, Zero)
    Name (_CRS, ResourceTemplate () {
      Memory32Fixed (ReadWrite, SYNQUACER_GPIO_BASE, SYNQUACER_GPIO_SIZE)
      Interrupt (ResourceConsumer, Edge, ActiveHigh, ExclusiveAndWake, 0, "\\_SB.EXIU") {
        7,
      }
    })
    ...
  }

The EXIU in this example is the external interrupt unit as can be found
on Socionext SynQuacer based platforms, which converts a block of 32 SPIs
from arbitrary polarity/trigger into level-high, with a separate set
of config/mask/unmask/clear controls.

The existing DT based driver in drivers/irqchip/irq-sni-exiu.c models
this as a hierarchical domain stacked on top of the GIC's irqdomain.
Since the GIC is modeled as a DT node as well, obtaining a reference
to this irqdomain is easily done by going through the parent link.

On ACPI systems, however, the GIC is not modeled as an object in the
namespace, and so device objects cannot refer to it directly. So in
order to obtain the irqdomain reference when driving the EXIU in ACPI
mode, we need a helper that implicitly grabs the default domain as the
parent of the hierarchy for interrupts allocated out of the global GSI
pool.
