gpio: add sloppy logic analyzer using polling
This is a sloppy logic analyzer using GPIOs. It comes with a script to isolate a CPU for polling. While this is definitely not a production level analyzer, it can be a helpful first view when remote debugging. Read the documentation for details.

+$progname - helper script for the Linux Kernel Sloppy GPIO Logic Analyzer
+Available options:
+ -c|--cpu <n>: which CPU to isolate for sampling. Only needed once. Default <1>.
+ Remember that a more powerful CPU gives you higher sampling speeds.
+ Also CPU0 is not recommended as it usually does extra bookkeeping.
+ -d|--duration-us <SI-n>: number of microseconds to sample. Overrides -n, no default value.
+ -h|--help: print this help
+ -i|--instance <str>: name of the logic analyzer in case you have multiple instances. Default
+ to first instance found
+ -k|--kernel-debug-dir <str>: path to the kernel debugfs mountpoint. Default: <$debugdir>
+ -l|--list-instances: list all available instances
+ -n|--num_samples <SI-n>: number of samples to acquire. Default <$numsamples>
+ -o|--output-dir <str>: directory to put the result files. Default: current dir
+ -s|--sample_freq <SI-n>: desired sampling frequency. Might be capped if too large.
+ Default: <1000000>
+ -t|--trigger <str>: pattern to use as trigger. <str> consists of two-char pairs. First
+ char is channel number starting at "1". Second char is trigger level:
+ "L" - low; "H" - high; "R" - rising; "F" - falling
+ These pairs can be combined with "+", so "1H+2F" triggers when probe 1
+ is high while probe 2 has a falling edge. You can have multiple triggers
+ combined with ",". So, "1H+2F,1H+2R" is like the example before but it
+ waits for a rising edge on probe 2 while probe 1 is still high after the
+ first trigger has been met.
+ Trigger data will only be used for the next capture and then be erased.
+
+<SI-n> is an integer value where SI units "T", "G", "M", "K" are recognized, e.g. '1M500K' is 1500000.
+
+Examples:
+Samples $numsamples values at 1MHz with an already prepared CPU or automatically prepares CPU1 if needed,
+use the first logic analyzer instance found:
+ '$progname'
+Samples 50us at 2MHz waiting for a falling edge on channel 2. CPU and instance as above:
+ '$progname -d 50 -s 2M -t "2F"'
+
+Note that the process exits after checking all parameters but a sub-process still works in
+the background. The result is only available once the sub-process finishes.
+
+Result is a .sr file to be consumed with PulseView from the free Sigrok project. It is
+a zip file which also contains the binary sample data which may be consumed by others.
+The filename is the logic analyzer instance name plus a since-epoch timestamp.
