A lot of drivers only care about enabling the regulator for as long as
the underlying Device is bound. This can be easily observed due to the
extensive use of `devm_regulator_get_enable` and
`devm_regulator_get_enable_optional` throughout the kernel.
Therefore, make this helper available in Rust. Also add an example
noting how it should be the default API unless the driver needs more
fine-grained control over the regulator.

Add a bare minimum regulator abstraction to be used by Rust drivers.
This abstraction adds a small subset of the regulator API, which is
thought to be sufficient for the drivers we have now.
Regulators provide the power needed by many hardware blocks and thus are
likely to be needed by a lot of drivers.
It was tested on rk3588, where it was used to power up the "mali"
regulator in order to power up the GPU.
