Add new i2c_probe_device and i2c_remove_device functions to explicitly
instantiate new i2c clients by adapter, driver id and bus address.
These functions can be used for special-purpose adapters, such as those
on TV tuner cards, where we generally know in advance what devices are
attached. This is important in cases where the adapter does not support
probing or when probing is potentially dangerous to the connected
devices.
