[PATCH v7 03/12] serial: 8250: share the RX trigger conversion helper

Drivers can supply receive-trigger thresholds through the RX trigger
callbacks without adding a legacy port type to uart_config[]. Extract the
threshold search into serial8250_bytes_to_fcr() so those drivers can use
the same conversion as the generic 8250 implementation.

Keep the implementation in 8250_port.c and share it within 8250_base.
Include the unsupported-table check and preserve the existing nearest-lower
selection and highest-encoding fallback.
