Moved sampling of ALS to its own task. The problem is that it
spin waits on the i2c bus mutex, and it's a bad idea to spin wait
for very long in the hooks task because the hooks task tickles
the watchdog.
BUG=chrome-os-partner:29003
BRANCH=none
TEST=tested on samus: make sure ALS task is running and no
watchdog timeouts when the i2c bus is wedged indefinitely.

This adds space for up to two ALS lux readings to be available to the AP
through the memory-mapped LPC region. If enabled, the values are updated
once a second.
The ALS will be reinitialized at every AP resume, since it's typically
unpowered otherwise. The reported value will be zero when the ALS is off.
BUG=chrome-os-partner:23380
BRANCH=samus
TEST=manual
Boot the AP, then from the EC console run "als" or just monitor the
memory-mapped region directly ("rw 0x40080780" on Samus), while pointing the
sensor at bright and dim areas. The value should change.

This adds the driver and a console command to read an Intersil ISL29305
light sensor connected to the EC.
BUG=chrome-os-partner:23380
BRANCH=samus
TEST=manual
Run the "als" command from the EC console, while pointing the sensor in
various directions. It should give higher numbers when facing a light
source. If you get "Error 1", it means the ALS isn't powered.
