[RFC PATCH 2/3] mfd: rk8xx: release the power hold GPIOs before powering off

rk808_power_off() writes the PMIC's shutdown bit directly. On boards with
"power hold" lines driven by the SoC, a shutdown performed this way does
not stick: the rails drop and immediately come back up, so the board
restarts instead of staying off. U-Boot reports the result as a power-on
reset.
Take those lines as an optional GPIO array, hold them asserted while the
system runs and release them - waiting power-hold-delay-ms - before
writing the shutdown bit. Device trees without the property retain the
existing behaviour.
Releasing every described line matters: on a Firefly-RK3399 the board
stays off when both lines described for it are released, whereas releasing
GPIO1_D0 while GPIO1_B5 is left asserted makes it come back up.
