SCMI transport operation .clear_notification() is indeed a generic method
to clear the channel in a transport dependent way, as such it could be a
useful helper also in other contexts.
Rename such method as .clear_channel(), renaming accordingly also its
already existent call-sites.
No functional change.

Add common transport-layer methods to:
- fetch a notification instead of a response
- clear a pending notification
Add also all the needed support in mailbox/shmem transports.

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertenly introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

Replace the zero-length member "msg_payload" in scmi_shared_mem
structure with flexible-array.

The SCMI specification is fairly independent of the transport protocol,
which can be a simple mailbox (already implemented) or anything else.
The current Linux implementation however is very much dependent on the
mailbox transport layer.
This patch makes the SCMI core code (driver.c) independent of the
mailbox transport layer and moves all mailbox related code to a new
file: mailbox.c and all struct shared_mem related code to a new file:
shmem.c.
We can now implement more transport protocols to transport SCMI
messages.
The transport protocols just need to provide struct scmi_transport_ops,
with its version of the callbacks to enable exchange of SCMI messages.
