[PATCH v5 0/2] i2c-tools: Make tools accept bus path

[Brigham Campbell <me@brighamcampbell.com>]

The purpose of this series is to make i2c-tools userspace utilities
accept an i2c bus character device file path as an argument. This is
useful, for example, if a sysadmin creates udev rules to create a
persistent symlink to an i2c bus and wishes to use that symlink with
i2c-tools.

Since v1:
 * Scrapped brittle checking against device major number 89 in favor of
   an i2c_bus_hint variant struct.
Since v2:
 * Scrapped i2c_bus_hint variant in favor of combining the lookup and
   open steps into one function. No more awkward variant.
Since v3:
 * Rebased onto `master` and fixed minor conflicts.
Since v4:
 * Inline much of the functionality of open_i2c_dev.
 * Where possible, make functions static.
