regmap: Add reg_default_cb callback for flat cache defaults

Commit e062bdfdd6ad ("regmap: warn users about uninitialized flat cache")
warns when REGCACHE_FLAT is used without full defaults. This causes
false positives on hardware where many registers reset to zero but are
not listed in reg_defaults, forcing drivers to maintain large tables
just to silence the warning.

Add a reg_default_cb() hook so drivers can supply defaults for registers
not present in reg_defaults when populating REGCACHE_FLAT. This keeps
the warning quiet for known zero-reset registers without bloating
tables. Provide a generic regmap_default_zero_cb() helper for drivers
that need zero defaults.

The hook is only used for REGCACHE_FLAT; the core does not
check readable/writeable access, so drivers must provide readable_reg/
writeable_reg callbacks and handle holes in the register map.
