usb: dwc3: Add Apple Silicon DWC3 glue layer driver

Browse source 
The dwc3 controller present on Apple Silicon SoCs like the M1 requires
a specific order of operations synchronized between its PHY and its
Type-C controller. Specifically, the PHY first has to go through initial
bringup (which requires knowledge of the lane mode and orientation)
before dwc3 itself can be brought up and can then finalize the PHY
configuration.
Additionally, dwc3 has to be teared down and re-initialized whenever
the cable is changed due to hardware quirks that prevent a new device
from being recognized and due to the PHY being unable to switch lane
mode or orientation while dwc3 is up and running.

These controllers also have a Apple-specific MMIO region after the
common dwc3 region where some controls have to be updated. PHY bringup
and shutdown also requires SUSPHY to be enabled for the ports to work
correctly.

In the future, this driver will also gain support for USB3-via-USB4
tunneling which will require additional tweaks.

Add a glue driver that takes of all of these constraints.
