ice: add write functionality for GNSS TTY
Add the possibility to write raw bytes to the GNSS module through the first TTY device. This allows user to configure the module. Create a second read-only TTY device.

+GNSS module
+-----------
+Allows user to read messages from the GNSS module and write supported commands.
+If the module is physically present, driver creates 2 TTYs for each supported
+device in /dev, ttyGNSS_<device>:<function>_0 and _1. First one (_0) is RW and
+the second one is RO.
+The protocol of write commands is dependent on the GNSS module as the driver
+writes raw bytes from the TTY to the GNSS i2c. Please refer to the module
+documentation for details.
