[RFC] Regulator: Add a voltage changed event to notify consumers

[Jonathan Cameron <jic23@cam.ac.uk>]

From: Jonathan Cameron <jic23@cam.ac.uk>
Regulator: Add a voltage changed event to notify consumers
that care when another device changes the regulator voltage.

If people are happy with this I'll post a follow up to update the
documentation to reflect this additional event.

This is pretty simple and very similar to the way the forced
disable event is handled. 

Worth noting is that (along with other events) the notifier
blocks are called with the regulator's lock held so any
attempt by consumers to update their voltage must be done
via a scheduled update call rather than within the callback
it self. The documentation will emphasize this.

Example of usage is the sht15 driver posted to lm-sensors where
the temperature measurement is dependent on the supply voltage
and hence needs to know if this has changed.
