gpiolib: Fix array members of same chip processed separately 

New code introduced by commit bf9346f5d4 ("gpiolib: Identify arrays
matching GPIO hardware") forcibly tries to find an array member which
has its array index number equal to its hardware pin number and set
up an array info for possible fast bitmap processing of all arrray
pins belonging to that chip which also satisfy that numbering rule.

Depending on array content, it may happen that consecutive array
members which belong to the same chip but don't have array indexes
equal to their pin hardware numbers will be split into groups, some of
them processed together via the fast bitmap path, and rest of them
separetely.  However, applications may expect all those pins being
processed together with a single call to .set_multiple() chip callback,
like that was done before the change.

Limit applicability of fast bitmap processing path to cases where all
pins of consecutive array members starting from 0 which belong to the
same chip have their hardware numbers equal to their corresponding
array indexes.  That should still speed up processing of applications
using whole GPIO banks as I/O ports, while not breaking simultaneous
manipulation of consecutive pins of the same chip which don't follow
the equal numbering rule.

In order to qualify for fast bitmap processing, the array must meet the
following requirements:
- it must belong to the same chip as other 'fast' pins of the function,
- its index within the function must match its hardware number within the chip.
- pin hardware number of array member 0 must also be 0,
- pin hardware numbers of consecutive array members which belong to the same
chip as member 0 does must also match their array indexes.
Open drain and open source pins are excluded from fast bitmap output processing.
Otherwise fast bitmap processing path is not used in order to avoid consecutive
pins which belong to the same chip but are not in hardware order being processed
separately.
If the array applies for fast bitmap processing path, pins which belong to
different chips than member 0 does, as well as those with indexes different from
their hardware pin numbers, are excluded from the fast path, both input and
output. Moreover, open drain and open source pins are excluded from fast bitmap
output processing.
