ACPI / utils: Add new acpi_dev_present helper
acpi_dev_found just iterates over all ACPI-ids and sees if one matches. This means that it will return true for devices which are in the DSDT but disabled (their _STA method returns 0). For some drivers it is useful to be able to check if a certain HID is not only present in the namespace, but also actually present as in acpi_device_is_present() will return true for the device. For example because if a certain device is present then the driver will want to use an extcon or IIO ADC channel provided by that device. This commit adds a new acpi_dev_present helper which drivers can use to this end. Like acpi_dev_found, acpi_dev_present take a HID as argument, but it also has 2 extra optional arguments to only check for an ACPI device with a specific UID and/or HRV value. This makes it more generic and allows it to replace custom code doing similar checks in several places. Arguably acpi_dev_present is what acpi_dev_found should have been, but there are too many users to just change acpi_dev_found without the risk of breaking something.
