gpiolib-acpi: introduce acpi_get_gpio_by_index() helper
Instead of open-coding ACPI GPIO resource lookup in each driver, we provide a helper function analogous to Device Tree version that allows drivers to specify which GPIO resource they are interested (using an index to the GPIO resources). The function then finds out the correct resource, translates the ACPI GPIO number to the corresponding Linux GPIO number and returns that.

+In a simple case of just getting the Linux GPIO number from device
+resources one can use acpi_get_gpio_by_index() helper function. It takes
+pointer to the device and index of the GpioIo/GpioInt descriptor in the
+device resources list. For example:

+ gpio_irq = acpi_get_gpio_by_index(dev, 1, NULL);

Other GpioIo parameters must be converted first by the driver to be
suitable to the gpiolib before passing them.
