BCM270x_DT: Add pwr_led, and the required "input" trigger

The "input" trigger makes the associated GPIO an input.  This is to support
the Raspberry Pi PWR LED, which is driven by external hardware in normal use.

N.B. pwr_led is not available on Model A or B boards.

leds-gpio: Implement the brightness_get method

The power LED uses some clever logic that means it is driven
by a voltage measuring circuit when configured as input, otherwise
it is driven by the GPIO output value. This patch wires up the
brightness_get method for leds-gpio so that user-space can monitor
the LED value via /sys/class/gpio/led1/brightness. Using the input
trigger this returns an indication of the system power health,
otherwise it is just whatever value the trigger has written most
recently.
