Many cpufreq drivers register with the energy model for each policy and

get it done from the cpufreq core itself.

Provide a new callback, which will be called, if present, by the cpufreq
core at the right moment (more on that in the code's comment). Also
provide a generic implementation that uses dev_pm_opp_of_register_em().

This also allows us to register with the EM at a later point of time,
compared to ->init(), from where the EM core can access cpufreq policy
directly using cpufreq_cpu_get() type of helpers and perform other work,
like marking few frequencies inefficient, this will be done separately.

This is build/boot tested by the bot for a couple of boards.

FWIW, I have queued up the series for linux-next to get more testing, but your
reviews are welcome. Thanks.

V2->V3:
- Drop the auto-register part from all logs, this isn't called auto registration
  anymore.
- Call register_em() only for new policies.
- Update scmi driver to register with EM only when required.
- Add Rby tags.
LGTM. Tested on TC2 (vexpress-spc), Juno-r0 (scpi-cpufreq and scmi).
