[PATCH v2 1/4] device property: Introduce fwnode_graph_for_each_endpoint_scoped()

From: Frank Li <Frank.Li@xxxxxxx>

Similar to recently propose for_each_child_of_node_scoped() this new
version of the loop macro instantiates a new local struct fwnode_handle *
that uses the __free(fwnode_handle) auto cleanup handling so that if a
reference to a node is held on early exit from the loop the reference will
be released. If the loop runs to completion, the child pointer will be NULL
and no action will be taken.

The reason this is useful is that it removes the need for
fwnode_handle_put() on early loop exits. If there is a need to retain the
reference, then return_ptr(child) or no_free_ptr(child) may be used to
safely disable the auto cleanup.
