Introduce a workaround to handle the issue where the regulator cannot be
enabled using BIT7 of the OPERATION(01h) register when in SVID mode.

It works when in PMBUS mode. In SVID mode the regulator only cares
about the ENABLE pin.

Determine if chip is in SVID mode by checking BIT15 of MTP memory offset
0x44 as described in the datasheet.

If chip is in SVID mode then apply the workaround by
1. Determine EN pin level
2. Maps BIT7 of OPERATION(01h) to EN_PIN_POLARITY(BIT1) of
PB_ON_OFF_CONFIG.

Tested working of TDA38640 in both SVID & PMBus mode.

If you hide this behind IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SENSORS_TDA38640_REGULATOR), reading
svid outside the if() statement has no value.

Hmm, maybe I start to understand. This is really weird, since it changes
the polarity of the EN input pin, effectively reverting its value.
In other words, what really happens is that it is not possible to disable
the chip with PMBUS_ON_OFF_CONFIG in SVID mode, and that reverting
the EN pin polarity effectively simulates turning the chip on or off by
software. Maybe software enable is disabled on purpose in VID mode.
Is that really a bug or is it a feature, and is it really a good idea to
override it ?

AN_2203_PL12_2204_184108 might really help here.
