cmd: gpio: Add `gpio read` subcommand

As explained in commit 4af2a33ee5b9 ("cmd: gpio: Make `gpio input`
return pin value again") the `gpio input` is used in scripts to obtain
the value of a pin, despite the fact that CMD_RET_FAILURE is
indistinguishable from a valid pin value.
To be able to detect failures and properly use the value of a GPIO in
scripts we introduce the `gpio read` command that sets the variable
`name` to the value of the pin. Return code of the `gpio read` command
can be used to check for CMD_RET_SUCCESS or CMD_RET_FAILURE.
CONFIG_CMD_GPIO_READ is used to enable the `gpio read` command.
