[PATCH v2 1/3] platform/x86: intel_lpss: add resource conflict quirk for Dell Latitude 5285

The Dell Latitude 5285 2-in-1 has a BIOS bug where the ACPI GEXP device
and the I2C4 controller (INT3446) both claim the same MMIO region via the
shared SB04 variable. This causes intel_lpss_acpi to fail binding to I2C4
with -EBUSY, preventing the front camera (OV5670) sensor from being
registered.

Add a DMI quirk that selects IGNORE_RESOURCE_CONFLICTS for INT3446 on this
machine, matching the existing pattern used by other LPSS quirks.
