PCI / PM: Support for LEAVE_SUSPENDED driver flag

Add support for DPM_FLAG_LEAVE_SUSPENDED to the PCI bus type by
making it (a) set the power.may_skip_resume status bit for devices
that, from its perspective, may be left in suspend after system
wakeup from sleep and (b) return early from pci_pm_resume_noirq()
for devices whose remaining resume callbacks during the transition
under way are going to be skipped by the PM core.

+Setting the DPM_FLAG_LEAVE_SUSPENDED flag means that the driver prefers the
+device to be left in suspend after system-wide transitions to the working state.
+This flag is checked by the PM core, but the PCI bus type informs the PM core
+which devices may be left in suspend from its perspective (that happens during
+the "noirq" phase of system-wide suspend and analogous transitions) and next it
+uses the dev_pm_may_skip_resume() helper to decide whether or not to return from
+pci_pm_resume_noirq() early, as the PM core will skip the remaining resume
+callbacks for the device during the transition under way and will set its
+runtime PM status to "suspended" if dev_pm_may_skip_resume() returns "true" for
+it.
