Add a driver for the Orient Chip OCP8178 backlight controller.

The OCP8178 supports either PWM or a vendor-specific onewire protocol
over GPIO. This driver implements the single-wire protocol, which
enables setting static brightness levels without requiring a continuous
PWM signal from the host CPU.
