gpio: sysfs: make the sysfs export behavior consistent
For drivers or board files that set gpio_chip->names, the links to the GPIO attribute group created on sysfs export will be named after the line's name set in that array. For lines that are named using device properties, the names pointer of the gpio_chip struct is never assigned so they are exported as if they're not named. The ABI documentation does not mention the former behavior and given that the majority of modern systems use device-tree, ACPI or other way of passing GPIO names using device properties - bypassing gc->names - it's better to make the behavior consistent by always exporting lines as "gpioXYZ".
