watchdog: WatchDog Timer Driver Core - Add basic ioctl functionality

This part add's the basic ioctl functionality to the
WatchDog Timer Driver Core framework. The supported
ioctl call's are:
	WDIOC_GETSUPPORT
	WDIOC_GETSTATUS
	WDIOC_GETBOOTSTATUS

the watchdog timer driver core does: to send a keepalive ping to the watchdog
timer hardware it will either use the ping operation (when available) or the
start operation (when the ping operation is not available).
* status: this routine checks the status of the watchdog timer device. The
status of the device is reported with watchdog WDIOF_* status flags/bits.
The status bits should (preferably) be set with the set_bit and clear_bit alike
bit-operations. The status bits that are defined are:
