rtc: abx80x: replace read-modify-write pattern with regmap helpers
This commit refactors the driver to replace open-coded read-modify-write
sequences with the regmap_update_bits() and regmap_write_bits() helpers to
simplify the code.

[Severity: High]
Since regmap_write_bits() performs an internal read-modify-write cycle, will
the initial read operation consume the configuration key unlock?
It looks like writing the configuration key only unlocks the very next
transaction. If the regmap helper reads first, the actual write might fail
silently and the hardware would reject the autocalibration settings.

[Severity: High]
Does the same issue apply here in oscillator_store()? The internal read
within regmap_write_bits() may consume the unlock key, preventing the
oscillator selection from being properly updated.

[Severity: High]
Could this cause the power leakage mitigation write in abx80x_probe() to be
rejected by the hardware because the unlock transaction was already consumed
by the regmap_write_bits() read phase?

[Severity: High]
Will the interrupt disable write also fail silently here due to the unlock
being consumed by the regmap read?
