HID: santroller: add driver for Santroller controllers

This commit adds a HID driver for Santroller USB and Bluetooth game
controllers and instruments, supporting profile naming, rumble, player
LEDs, RGB indicator LEDs, and turntable euphoria LEDs.

[Severity: Low]
Should this also depend on USB_HID || !USB_HID?  When CONFIG_HID_SANTROLLER=y
and CONFIG_USB_HID=m, IS_REACHABLE(CONFIG_USB_HID) in
santroller_profile_name() evaluates to false and silently compiles out USB
profile naming even though USB HID support is enabled.

[Severity: Medium]
Can santroller_player_led_set() send a stale player LED state by ignoring
value and reading sc->player_leds[i].brightness?

When software blinking (such as the timer trigger) is stopped while the LED
is in its ON phase, led_set_brightness(led_cdev, LED_OFF) defers the update
to set_brightness_delayed() without clearing led_cdev->brightness:

drivers/leds/led-core.c:set_brightness_delayed() {
    ...
	if (test_and_clear_bit(LED_SET_BRIGHTNESS_OFF, &led_cdev->work_flags)) {
		set_brightness_delayed_set_brightness(led_cdev, LED_OFF);
    ...
}

set_brightness_delayed_set_brightness() calls __led_set_brightness(led_cdev,
LED_OFF) -> santroller_player_led_set(led_cdev, LED_OFF) while
led->brightness is still 1, leaving the hardware player LED lit.  Using
value for the entry matching led (or updating led->brightness = value under
sc->lock before the loop) would keep the state in sync.
