When accessing retimers when there is no cable connected we are going to
need additional USB4 port operations. First the port needs to be put
into offline mode, and then the sideband channel transactions must be
enabled on the SBTX line. This adds support for these operations.

USB4 spec specifies standard access to retimers (both on-board and
cable) through USB4 port sideband access. This makes it possible to
upgrade their firmware in the same way than we already do with the
routers.
This enumerates on-board retimers under each USB4 port when the link
comes up and adds them to the bus under the router the retimer belongs
to. Retimers are exposed in sysfs with name like <device>:<port>.<index>
where device is the router the retimer belongs to, port is the USB4 port
the retimer is connected to and index is the retimer index under that
port (starting from 1). This applies to the upstream USB4 port as well
so if there is on-board retimer between the port and the router it is
also added accordingly.
At this time we do not add cable retimers but there is no techincal
restriction to do so in the future if needed. It is not clear whether it
makes sense to upgrade their firmwares and at least Thunderbolt 3 cables
it has not been done outside of lab environments.
The sysfs interface is made to follow the router NVM upgrade to make it
easy to extend the existing userspace (fwupd) to handle these as well.

USB4 spec specifies standard set of sideband operations that are send
over the low speed link to access either retimers on the link or the
link parter (the other router). The USB4 retimer spec extends these and
adds operations for retimer NVM upgrade.
This implements the retimer access and NVM upgrade USB4 port sideband
operations which we need for retimer support in the patch that follows.
