acpi, nfit: add support for the _LSI, _LSR, and _LSW label methods
ACPI 6.2 adds support for named methods to access the label storage area of an NVDIMM. We prefer these new methods if available and otherwise fallback to the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL _DSMs. The kernel ioctls, ND_IOCTL_{GET,SET}_CONFIG_{SIZE,DATA}, remain generic and the driver translates the 'package' payloads into the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL 'buffer' format to maintain compatibility with existing userspace and keep the output buffer parsing code in the driver common. The output payloads are mostly compatible save for the 'label area locked' status that moves from the 'config_size' (_LSI) command to the 'config_read' (_LSR) command status.
