rpmsg: ctrl: Introduce new RPMSG_CREATE/RELEASE_DEV_IOCTL controls

Allow the user space application to create and release an rpmsg device
by adding RPMSG_CREATE_DEV_IOCTL and RPMSG_RELEASE_DEV_IOCTL ioctrls to
the /dev/rpmsg_ctrl interface

The RPMSG_CREATE_DEV_IOCTL Ioctl can be used to instantiate a local rpmsg
device.
Depending on the back-end implementation, the associated rpmsg driver is
probed and a NS announcement can be sent to the remote processor.

The RPMSG_RELEASE_DEV_IOCTL allows the user application to release a
rpmsg device created either by the remote processor or with the
RPMSG_CREATE_DEV_IOCTL call.
Depending on the back-end implementation, the associated rpmsg driver is
removed and a NS destroy rpmsg can be sent to the remote processor.
