driver core: Add flag to autoremove device link on supplier unbind
Add a flag to autoremove the device links on supplier driver unbind. This obviates the need to explicitly delete the link in the remove path. We remove these links only when the supplier's link to its consumers has gone to DL_STATE_SUPPLIER_UNBIND state.

This obviates the need to explicitly delete the link in the ``->remove``
callback or in the error path of the ``->probe`` callback.
+Similarly, when the device link is added from supplier's ``->probe`` callback,
+``DL_FLAG_AUTOREMOVE_SUPPLIER`` causes the device link to be automatically
+purged when the supplier fails to probe or later unbinds.
