There are slave devices that understand I2C but have read-only
SDA and SCL. Examples are FD650 7-segment LED controller and
its derivatives. Typical board designs don't even have a
pull-up for both pins. Therefore don't enforce open-drain
if SDA and SCL both are unidirectional. This patch makes
i2c-gpio usable with such devices, based on new DT property
i2c-gpio,sda-output-only.
