regulator: Allow boot_on regulators to be disabled by clients

Rather than incrementing the reference count for boot_on regulators
(which prevents them being disabled later on) simply force the
regulator to be enabled when applying the constraints. Previously
boot_on was essentially equivalent to always_on.
