irqdomain: Introduce a firmware-specific IRQ specifier structure

So far the closest thing to a generic IRQ specifier structure is
of_phandle_args, which happens to be pretty OF specific (the of_node
pointer in there is quite annoying).

Let's introduce 'struct irq_fwspec' that can be used in place of
of_phandle_args for OF, but also for other firmware implementations
(that'd be ACPI). This is used together with a new 'translate' method
that is the pendent of 'xlate'.

We convert irq_create_of_mapping to use this new structure (with a
small hack that will be removed later).
