Implement .get_multiple and .set_multiple to allow reading or setting
multiple pins simultaneously. Pins in the same bank will all be switched at
the same time, improving synchronization and performances.

Good initiative!

Realistically, the only case that could happen would be
ATMEL_PIO_NPINS_PER_BANK == 32 and BITS_PER_LONG ==64. so I would go for
ATMEL_PIO_NPINS_PER_BANK < BITS_PER_LONG

This doesn't look good for multiplatform kernels.
I don't think we have multiplatform kernels that run both in 32 and 64
bits. I don't believe ATMEL_PIO_NPINS_PER_BANK will ever change, it has
been 32 on all the atmel SoCs since 2001.
We need to get rid of any compiletime constants like this.

Not your fault I suppose it is already there, but this really need
to be fixed. Any ideas?
I can go for a variable instead of a constant but the fact is that there
is currently no 64bit SoC with that IP. I added the compile time check
just in case a 64 bit SoC appears with that IP one day.
