Add WMI drivers for LEGACY and WMAX devices.

This involves moving platform driver and device registration to a helper
function, which is now called from the driver's preferred WMI device
driver probe. However this is only done if !quirks->thermal because
newer WMAX interface doesn't support any of the features exposed by this
device.

Only one driver is registered on module initialization to prevent
registering duplicate platform driver and device.

Aditionally, create_thermal_profile() now takes wmi_device * instead of
platform_device *.
Since the HDMI, Amplifier and deepslp groups depend on the WMAX interface i would
register them inside wmax_wmi_probe() using device_add_groups() (you might need to
rework alienware_alienfx_setup() for that).

In the end the only code shared between both drivers should be related to the LED handling.
Everything else AFAIK depends on the WMAX interface and should therefore be inside the
WMAX driver.
Unfortunately this breaks old user-space interface, as the path to this
attributes would change :(. This is why I can't even set a parent dev
for the platform_device.

I only know of one project which interefaces with this driver [1], and
it does use the /sys/devices/platform/alienware-wmi path. Maybe I could
send a pull req, but it would still break old unknown projects and
scripts.

[1] https://crates.io/crates/alienware

I meant that you use device_add_groups() on the platform device, not on the WMI device itself.
Since alienware_alienfx_setup() stores a pointer to the platform device using dev_set_drvdata() the WMI driver
can use dev_get_drvdata() to access the platform device.
