[PATCH v13 26/28] coresight: sysfs: Increment refcount only for software source

Except for software sources (e.g. STM), other sources treat multiple
enables as equivalent to a single enable. The device mode already
tracks the binary state, so it is redundant to operate refcount.
Introduce a helper coresight_is_software_source() for check software
source. Refactor to maintain the refcount only for software sources.
This simplifies future CPU PM handling without refcount logic.
