Add auxiliary bus support
Add support for the Auxiliary Bus, auxiliary_device and auxiliary_driver. It enables drivers to create an auxiliary_device and bind an auxiliary_driver to it. The bus supports probe/remove shutdown and suspend/resume callbacks. Each auxiliary_device has a unique string based id; driver binds to an auxiliary_device based on this id through the bus.
