Currently GPIO controllers can only be referred to by label in GPIO
lookup tables.

Add support for looking them up by "gpiochipN" name, with "N" the
corresponding GPIO device's ID number.

Just like with patch 2/5 I have the same problem here that
the commit message doesn't state the technical reason why
we need to change this and support the device name in these
tables and not just labels.

(Possibly again I will realize it...)
