i2c: Add driver suspend/resume/shutdown support

Driver model updates for the I2C core:

 - Add new suspend(), resume(), and shutdown() methods.  Use them in the
   standard driver model style; document them.

 - Minor doc updates to highlight zero-initialized fields in drivers, and
   the driver model accessors for "clientdata".

If any i2c drivers were previously using the old suspend/resume calls
in "struct driver", they were getting warning messages ... and will
now no longer work.  Other than that, this patch changes no behaviors;
and it lets I2C drivers use conventional PM and shutdown support.

+Power Management
+================
+
+If your I2C device needs special handling when entering a system low
+power state -- like putting a transceiver into a low power mode, or
+activating a system wakeup mechanism -- do that in the suspend() method.
+The resume() method should reverse what the suspend() method does.

+These are standard driver model calls, and they work just like they
