User space applications in some cases have the need to enforce a
specific port type(DFP/UFP/DRP). This change allows userspace to
attempt setting the desired port type. Low level drivers can
however reject the request if the specific port type is not supported.

Changelog since v1:
- introduced a new variable port_type in struct typec_port to track
   the current port type instead of changing type member in
   typec_capability to address Heikki Krogerus comments.
- changed the output format and strings that would be displayed as
   suggested by Heikki Krogerus.

Unrelated change; should be in a separate patch. Also, it should
probably return -EOPNOTSUPP.

If the new type matches the current type, you could return immediately here.

We have no locking here, meaning a second request could be processed in parallel.
There is no guarantee that the resulting value in port->port_type matches
the actual port type (for example, if the code flow is interrupted before
port_type is set).

For other functions we have a callback from the driver, and the driver is
responsible for all locking. That doesn't work here, and a callback from
the driver to update the port type does not seem necessary (the port type,
unlike roles, does not change by itself). That means you'll need locking
to make sure that the port->port_type is in sync with the low level driver.

Hmm.. I think this is another race condition. The port type could change from
DFP to DRP after the variable was read the first time, and we would display
it as sink. You would need a mutex to protect against changes of port->port_type,
or introduce an array with the three strings and use something like

const char *something[] = {
	[TYPEC_PORT_DRP] = "[dual] source sink",
	...
};
	...
		return sprintf(buf, ""%s\n", something[port->port_type]);

which would be less code. After all, the strings are needed anyway.
