Add the core implementation for firmware and host client
management within the ISSEI (Intel Silicon Security Engine Interface)
subsystem support for a character device to expose the ISSEI
HECI interface to user space.
The firmware client (fw_client) and host client (host_client) modules
are responsible for managing communication between the host software
and the firmware.
The character device provides a communication channel for user-space
applications to interact with the firmware on the platform.
The client modules enable the ISSEI driver to manage multiple
host clients communicating with corresponding firmware
clients, facilitating data transfers and control operations
over the HECI interface.
The character device allows user-space applications to establish
connections to firmware clients using UUIDs, exchange messages,
and control the communication flow using standard
file operation calls.
