Add a "sinks" directory entry so that users can see all the sinks
available in the system in a single place.  Individual sink are added
as they are registered with the coresight bus.

I would have  added the attribute to the csdev (say, sink_attr),
and add that to the group, so that it is easier to remove the
attribute when the sink device is removed from the system (when
we get there). It would be good to have something in place to remove the
attribute.

My hope was to avoid introducing a new field in the already bloated
coresight_device structure, and on top of things a component specific
field.  I think it would be worth it if we'd envision making the
coresight drivers removable in a not so distant future.  But doing
something like that is quite tricky (as Kim quickly found out) and
skirts the bottom of the list of priorities, if on it at all.

I'll change it if you're really keen on it but it would be code that
is never used.

Otherwise, the overall approach looks fine to me.
