power: reset: Add QEMU virt-ctrl driver

Add a new driver for the 'virt-ctrl' device found on QEMU virt machines
(e.g. m68k). This device provides a simple interface for system reset
and power off [1].

This driver utilizes the modern system-off API to register callbacks
for both system restart and power off. It also registers a reboot
notifier to catch SYS_HALT events, ensuring that LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_HALT
is properly handled. It is designed to be generic and can be reused by
other architectures utilizing this QEMU device.
