reset: realtek: Add RTD1625 reset controller driver

This commit adds support for the CRT and ISO domain reset controller on
the Realtek RTD1625 SoC. The reset driver is implemented as an auxiliary
driver to handle shared register space with the clock controller.

[Severity: Medium]
Should there be a check to ensure dev_get_platdata() does not return NULL?

If the parent clock controller driver fails to populate the platform data
for the auxiliary device before adding it to the auxiliary bus, this could
lead to a NULL pointer being assigned to data->regmap. This might result
in a kernel panic during later reset operations (such as assert or deassert)
when the regmap is dereferenced by rtk_reset_ops.
