In order to support per-protocol channels if available, we need to
factor out all the mailbox channel information(Tx/Rx payload and
channel handle) out of the main SCMI instance information structure.

This patch refactors the existing channel information into a separate
chan_info structure.

A little odd to present a series to mainline that does a fairly important
refactor mid way through.  Why not push this down to the start and always support
the separate chan_info structure?

Since the development started long back and this was added later, I
preferred to keep functionality working and didn't want to push change
down in the stack.
