regulator: add get_status()
Based on previous LKML discussions:
* Update docs for regulator sysfs class attributes to highlight
the fact that all current attributes are intended to be control
inputs, including notably "state" and "opmode" which previously
implied otherwise.
* Define a new regulator driver get_status() method, which is the
first method reporting regulator outputs instead of inputs.
It can report on/off and error status; or instead of simply
"on", report the actual operating mode.
For the moment, this is a sysfs-only interface, not accessible to
regulator clients. Such clients can use the current notification
interfaces to detect errors, if the regulator reports them.
