comedi: comedi_8255: Rework subdevice initialization functions

Comedi drivers can initialize an 8255 subdevice in I/O space by calling
`subdev_8255_init()`, or in memory-mapped I/O space by calling
`subdev_8255_mm_init()`, or by supplying a call-back function pointer
and context to either of those functions. Change it so that a new
function `subdev_8255_cb_init()` shall be called instead when supplying
a callback function and context, and remove the call-back function
parameter from `subdev_8255_init()` and `subdev_8255_mm_init()`.

Also rename `subdev_8255_init()` to `subdev_8255_io_init()`. The
parameters are changing, so might as well rename it at the same time.

Also rename the `regbase` member of `struct subdev_8255_private` to
`context` since this holds the context for the call-back function call.

comedi: remove redundant assignment to variable buffer_config

Variable buffer_config is being assigned a value that is never read, it
is being re-assigned later on. The assignment is redundant and can be
removed.

comedi: Move and rename "8255.h" to <linux/comedi/comedi_8255.h>

Some of the header files in "drivers/comedi/drivers/" are common enough
to be useful to out-of-tree comedi driver modules. Using them for
out-of-tree module builds is hampered by the headers being outside the
"include/" directory so it is desirable to move them.

There are about a couple of dozen Comedi device drivers that use the
"comedi_8255" module to add digital I/O subdevices based on the
venerable 8255 Programmable Peripheral Interface chip. The macros and
declarations to use that module are in the "8255.h" header file in the
comedi "drivers" directory. Move it into "include/linux/comedi/" and
rename it to "comedi_8255.h" for naming consistency reasons.

Additionally, move the user-space API header "comedi.h" into

Update the "COMEDI DRIVERS" section of the MAINTAINERS file to account
for these changes.

staging: comedi: move out of staging directory

The comedi code came into the kernel back in 2008, but traces its
lifetime to much much earlier. It's been polished and buffed and
there's really nothing preventing it from being part of the "real"
portion of the kernel.

So move it to drivers/comedi/ as it belongs there.

Many thanks to the hundreds of developers who did the work to make this
happen.
