The TWL6025 was never released beyond sample form and was replaced by
the PhoenixLite range of chips - TWL6032. Change the references to
reference the TWL6032 class and name the registers to twl6032 in line with
an actual released chip name to avoid confusion.

Currently there is no users of TWL6025 in the code.

Given that the chip exists even if not widely distributed it seems as
well to keep the twl6025 references in there at least in the device ID
table - it won't do any harm to people using the twl6032 name and might
help someone who happens to pick up an old board for whatever reason.

I do not think any "old boards" exist, it really was a limited run!

Hello Mark, Graeme

So, what is your opinion? Could we move forward with this?

In addition, If twl6032 will be added on top of twl6025 there will be no guarantee
that twl6025 will work because:
- there is no HW to verify
- there is no documentation on twl6025 available, so, in case if current implementation is
different from what is needed for twl6032 - it can't be handled properly
