regmap: define cleanup helper for regmap_field

For temporary field allocation, the user has to perform manual cleanup,
or rely on devm_regmap_field_alloc() to (eventually) clean up the
allocated resources when an error occurs.

Add a cleanup helper that takes care of freeing the allocated
regmap_field whenever it goes out of scope.

This can simplify this example:

    struct regmap_field *field = regmap_field_alloc(...);
    if (IS_ERR(field))
        return PTR_ERR(field);

    int err = regmap_field_read(...);
    if (err)
        goto out;

    /* some logic that may also error */

    err = regmap_field_write(...);

  out:
    regmap_field_free(field);

    return err;

into the shorter:

    struct regmap_field *field __free(regmap_field) = regmap_field_alloc(...);
    if (IS_ERR(field))
        return PTR_ERR(field);

    int err = regmap_field_read(...);
    if (err)
        return err;

    /* some logic that may also error */

    return regmap_field_write(...);
