regulator: add get_status()

Based on previous LKML discussions:

 * Update docs for regulator sysfs class attributes to highlight
   the fact that all current attributes are intended to be control
   inputs, including notably "state" and "opmode" which previously
   implied otherwise.

 * Define a new regulator driver get_status() method, which is the
   first method reporting regulator outputs instead of inputs.
   It can report on/off and error status; or instead of simply
   "on", report the actual operating mode.

For the moment, this is a sysfs-only interface, not accessible to
regulator clients.  Such clients can use the current notification
interfaces to detect errors, if the regulator reports them.
