genirq: Provide irq_request/release_resources chip callbacks
For certain irq types, e.g. gpios, it's necessary to request resources before starting up the irq. This might fail so we cannot use the irq_startup() callback because we might call the irq_set_type() callback before that which does not make sense when the resource is not available. Calling irq_startup() before irq_set_type() can lead to spurious interrupts which is not desired either.
