Introduce a new test to identify regressions causing devices to go
missing on the system.

For each bus and class on the system the test checks the number of
devices present against a reference file, which needs to have been
generated by the program at a previous point on a known-good kernel, and
if there are missing devices they are reported.

Add new kselftest that tests whether devices declared in the ACPI
namespace and supported by the kernel are correctly bound
to a driver.

The test traverses the ACPI sysfs tree to get a list of all the devices
defined in the ACPI namespace and verifies whether the physical devices
linked to each ACPI object are bound to a driver.
The test relies on two lists to skip devices not expected to be bound
to a driver:
- List generated by the acpi-extract-ids script: includes the ACPI IDs
  matched by a driver
- Manual list of ignored IDs: includes the ID of devices that may be
  discovered only via the platform firmware and that don't require a
  driver or cannot be represented as platform devices

The test also examines the sysfs attributes of the target device objects
linked by physical_node* to exclude other devices that should not be
bound to a driver. This includes:
- Devices not assigned to any subsystem
- Devices that are linked to other devices
- Class devices
- Specific PCI bridges that do not require a driver

Add a script to extract all the supported acpi device ids
from kernel sources.

The script looks for IDs defined in acpi_device_id structs within both
.c and .h files and prints them. If the -d option is used, the script
only shows the IDs that are matched by a driver, identified through
either an ACPI match table or a list of supported IDs provided by the
driver.

The list of IDs returned by the script can be used as a
reference to determine if a device declared in the ACPI namespace
with certain _HID/_CID is supported by the kernel or not.

Note: this script cannot identify IDs defined via macros.
