HID: mcp2221: Add module parameter to enfoce GPIO mode

Browse source 
Add a module parameter to MCP2221 to enfor GPIO mode on the
general purpose pins GP0 thru GP3.

If I plug a device of this type into my machine, it will use the
GP0, GP1, GP2 and GP3 pins for IIO voltage readings by default
if CONFIG_IIO is set.

However there may be cases where IIO is available but we want to
use the GP0 thru GP3 lines for GPIO anyway.

Example use:

insmode hid-mcp2221.ko gpio_mode_enforce=1

Result in dmesg:
mcp2221 0003:04D8:00DD.0005: GPIO 0 not in gpio mode
mcp2221 0003:04D8:00DD.0005: GPIO 1 not in gpio mode
mcp2221 0003:04D8:00DD.0005: GPIO 2 not in gpio mode
mcp2221 0003:04D8:00DD.0005: GPIO 3 not in gpio mode
mcp2221 0003:04D8:00DD.0005: Set GPIO mode for gpio pin 0!
mcp2221 0003:04D8:00DD.0005: Set GPIO mode for gpio pin 1!
mcp2221 0003:04D8:00DD.0005: Set GPIO mode for gpio pin 2!
mcp2221 0003:04D8:00DD.0005: Set GPIO mode for gpio pin 3!

After this the gpiolib tools such as gpioset can be used to alter
the GPIO line values successfully.
