Zephyr has a PWM-LED driver which makes calls to a PWM driver to control
the pin. The previous MCHP PWM-BBLED driver do not report its actual
PWM cycles, instead it reported the clock source it used: 32KHz or 48MHz.
This bug caused the LED-PWM driver set brightness to compute incorrect
parameters passed to the PWM-BBLED driver. The BBLED hardware has a
built-in divider of 256 therefore its maximum cycles are 128 and 48M/256
respectively. This change also simplified the calculations. A DT overlay
for the MEC172x EVB was added to the PWM-LED sample to demonstrate driver
operation. We found specifying >= 50 ms for the PWM period in the device
tree nodes provided a good operating range for the LED-PWM driver
parameter calculations.
Note: BBLED hardware implements an 8-bit PWM with a fixed divider of 256
and a 12-bit frequency pre-scaler. Duty cycle is represented by an 8-bit
value.

Updated the driver to support low power mode.
Introduced "enable-low-power" flag in device tree to
control(on/off) low power mode.
If flag added in DTS, during sleep BBLED will switch off the LEDs.
Otherwise BBLED will continue the configured blinking pattern on LEDs.

The Microchip XEC platform always uses pinctrl, there's no need to keep
extra macrology around pinctrl. Also updated driver's Kconfig options to
`select PINCTRL`.

The Microchip XEC (MEC172x and MEC152x) have a breathing-blinking
LED (BBLED) block which implements a simple PWM mode. The BBLED
PWM frequencies are 32KHz and 48MHz selectable in device tree.
Frequency divider is 12-bit resolution from 256 to (256 * 4096).
