fbtft provides sysfs interfaces for debugging and gamma configuration,
but these are not required for the core driver.

Drop the hard dependency on CONFIG_FB_DEVICE and make sysfs support
optional by using dev_of_fbinfo() at runtime. When FB_DEVICE is disabled,
sysfs operations are skipped while the code remains buildable and
type-checked.
