[PATCH v2 2/4] pwm-backlight: add support for pwm-delay-us property

From: huang lin <hl at rock-chips.com>

Some panels (i.e. N116BGE-L41), in their power sequence specifications,
request a delay between set the PWM signal and enable the backlight and
between clear the PWM signal and disable the backlight. Add support for
the new pwm-delay-us property to meet the timing.

Note that this patch inverts current sequence. Before this patch the
enable signal was set before the PWM signal and vice-versa on power off.

I assumed that this sequence was wrong, at least it is on different panel
datasheets that I checked, so I inverted the sequence to follow:

  On power on, set the PWM signal, wait, and set the LED_EN signal.
  On power off, clear the LED_EN signal, wait, and stop the PWM signal.

Changes since v1:
 - As suggested by Daniel Thompson
   - Do not assume power-on delay and power-off delay will be the same
 - Move the check of dt property to the parse dt function.
