remoteproc: Add remoteproc character device interface
Add the character device interface into remoteproc framework. This interface can be used in order to boot/shutdown remote subsystems and provides a basic ioctl based interface to implement supplementary functionality. An ioctl call is implemented to enable the shutdown on release feature which will allow remote processors to be shutdown when the controlling userspace application crashes or hangs.
