Introduce a comprehensive abstraction layer for the PWM subsystem to enable writing drivers in Rust. Because `Device`, `Chip`, and `PwmOps` all refer to each other, they form a single, indivisible unit with circular dependencies. They are introduced together in this single commit to create a complete, compilable abstraction layer. The main components are: - Data Wrappers: Safe, idiomatic wrappers for core C types like `pwm_device`, and `pwm_chip`. - PwmOps Trait: An interface that drivers can implement to provide their hardware-specific logic, mirroring the C `pwm_ops` interface. - FFI VTable and Adapter: A bridge to connect the high-level PwmOps trait to the C kernel's pwm_ops vtable. - Allocation and Lifetime Management: A high-level `Chip::new()` API to safely allocate a chip and a `Registration` guard that integrates with `devres` to manage the chip's registration with the PWM core. An `AlwaysRefCounted` implementation and a custom release handler prevent memory leaks by managing the chip's lifetime and freeing driver data correctly.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
