[PATCH v5 02/13] firmware: arm_scmi: Add configurable polling mode for transports

SCMI communications along TX channels can optionally be provided of a
completion interrupt; when such interrupt is not available, command
transactions should rely on polling, where the SCMI core takes care to
repeatedly evaluate the transport-specific .poll_done() function, if
available, to determine if and when a request was fully completed or
timed out.
Such mechanism is already present and working on a single transfer base:
SCMI protocols can indeed enable hdr.poll_completion on specific commands
ahead of each transfer and cause that transaction to be handled with
polling.
Introduce a couple of flags to be able to enforce such polling behaviour
globally at will:
- scmi_desc.force_polling: to statically switch the whole transport to
polling mode.
- scmi_chan_info.no_completion_irq: to switch a single channel dynamically
to polling mode if, at runtime, is determined that no completion
interrupt was available for such channel.

---
v4 --> v5
- make force_polling const
- introduce polling_enabled flag to simplify checks on do_xfer
v3 --> v4:
- renamed .needs_polling flag to .no_completion_irq
- refactored error path when polling needed but not supported
