Add a function for adding connections dynamically. This also removes the 1:1 mapping between port number and the index into the connections array. The only place this mapping was used was in the warning for duplicate output ports, which has been replaced by a search. Other uses of the port number already use the port member variable. Being able to dynamically add connections will allow other devices like CTI to re-use the connection mechanism despite not having explicit connections described in the DT. The connections array is now no longer sparse, so child_fwnode doesn't need to be checked as all connections have a target node. Because the array is no longer sparse, the high in and out port numbers are required for the refcount arrays. But these will also be removed in a later commit when the refcount is made a property of the connection.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
