Provide our own supports_color method to specify which colors are
actually implemented by the driver. RGB LEDs could provide different
colors as well such as orange, purple, etc. but those are not supported
yet.
Drop has_color API since supported colors are set during probing
and can be handled completely separately from the classes for
each type of hardware.
Rename set_color to set_supported_color because the usage
of this API is to check if the color is supported, but not
setting it. Setting the color is also separated from
start_periodic API to re-use multicolor across multiple LED types
with a set_color API. Multicolor LEDs are actually the same as
regular LEDs but they require a few additional sysfs entries to
actually set the color. Single color LEDs only have a single color
so the set_color method just returns TRUE for these LEDs.
Supported colors are advertised through the supports_color API now.
This way, each LED driver define which colors are supported
through supports_color API. RGB multicolor LEDs will report only fixed colors
like red, blue, green and white until the kernel can expose if a diffusor
is present to mix these colors.
Everything related to multicolor moves into the new class and we add the
necessary getters and setters so derived classes can access the parent
classes attributes where needed.
