crypto: iaa - Add Intel IAA Compression Accelerator crypto driver core

The Intel Analytics Accelerator (IAA) is a hardware accelerator that
provides very high thoughput compression/decompression compatible with
the DEFLATE compression standard described in RFC 1951, which is the
compression/decompression algorithm exported by this module.

Users can select IAA compress/decompress acceleration by specifying
one of the deflate-iaa* algorithms as the compression algorithm to use
by whatever facility allows asynchronous compression algorithms to be
selected.

For example, zswap can select the IAA fixed deflate algorithm
'deflate-iaa' via:

  # echo deflate-iaa > /sys/module/zswap/parameters/compressor

This patch adds iaa_crypto as an idxd sub-driver and tracks iaa
devices and workqueues as they are probed or removed.
