cxl/hdm: Add 'mode' attribute to decoder objects
Recall that the Device Physical Address (DPA) space of a CXL Memory Expander is potentially partitioned into a volatile and persistent portion. A decoder maps a Host Physical Address (HPA) range to a DPA range and that translation depends on the value of all previous (lower instance number) decoders before the current one. In preparation for allowing dynamic provisioning of regions, decoders need an ABI to indicate which DPA partition a decoder targets. This ABI needs to be prepared for the possibility that some other agent committed and locked a decoder that spans the partition boundary. Add 'decoderX.Y/mode' to endpoint decoders that indicates which partition 'ram' / 'pmem' the decoder targets, or 'mixed' if the decoder currently spans the partition boundary.
