input: keyboard: Add driver for ASUS Transformer dock multimedia keys

This commit adds an input driver for the ASUS Transformer Mobile Dock
multimedia top button row, defaulting to F1-F12 function keys and allowing
switching to multimedia keys with ScreenLock + AltGr.

[Severity: Medium]
Should asus_ec_keys_process_key() validate that code < ASUSEC_EXT_KEY_CODES
before setting priv->ec->special_combo_triggered and offsetting code by
ASUSEC_EXT_KEY_CODES?

In asus_ec_keys_setup_keymap(), dev->keycodemax is set to
ARRAY_SIZE(priv->keymap) (0x40), spanning both keymap pages:

drivers/input/keyboard/asus-transformer-ec-keys.c:asus_ec_keys_setup_keymap() {
	...
	dev->keycode = priv->keymap;
	dev->keycodesize = sizeof(*priv->keymap);
	dev->keycodemax = ARRAY_SIZE(priv->keymap);
	...
}

When asus_ec_keys_notify() passes data[2] to asus_ec_keys_process_key() with a
raw code >= ASUSEC_EXT_KEY_CODES (0x20), a few issues can occur:

1. If priv->ec->right_alt_pressed is true, priv->ec->special_combo_triggered is
   set to true even for out-of-range codes.

2. When (priv->special_key_mode ^ priv->ec->right_alt_pressed) is false, a raw
   code in 0x20..0x3f passes code < dev->keycodemax (0x40) and indexes into
   the second page (multimedia keys) in map[code] instead of reporting
   KEY_UNKNOWN.

3. When (priv->special_key_mode ^ priv->ec->right_alt_pressed) is true, adding
   ASUSEC_EXT_KEY_CODES (0x20) to the 8-bit u8 code overflows for raw codes in
   0xe0..0xff, wrapping code into 0x00..0x1f (the first page of map[]) and
   reporting the wrapped value via MSC_SCAN instead of KEY_UNKNOWN. For raw
   codes in 0x20..0xdf, MSC_SCAN is also reported with code + 0x20 rather than
   the raw code.
