ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) is a standard for
specifying information about a platform. It is a little like device
tree but the bindings are part of the specification and it supports an
interpreted bytecode language.
Driver model does not use ACPI for U-Boot's configuration, but it is
convenient to have it support generation of ACPI tables for passing to
Linux, etc.
As a starting point, add an optional set of ACPI operations to each
device. Initially only a single operation is available, to obtain the
ACPI name for the device. More operations are added later.
Enable ACPI for sandbox to ensure build coverage and so that we can add
tests.
