gpio: Remove dynamic allocation from populate_parent_alloc_arg()

The gpiolib is unique in the way it uses intermediate fwspecs
when feeding an interrupt specifier to the parent domain, as it
relies on the populate_parent_alloc_arg() callback to perform
a dynamic allocation.

This is pretty inefficient (we free the structure almost immediately),
and the only reason this isn't a stack allocation is that our
ThunderX friend uses MSIs rather than a FW-constructed structure.

Let's solve it by providing a new type composed of the union
of a struct irq_fwspec and a msi_info_t, which satisfies both
requirements. This allows us to use a stack allocation, and we
can move the handful of users to this new scheme.

Also perform some additional cleanup, such as getting rid of the
stub versions of the irq_domain_translate_*cell helpers, which
are never used when CONFIG_IRQ_DOMAIN_HIERARCHY isn't selected.

Tested on a Tegra186.
