New driver to ACPI generic event device, defined in ACPI spec.
Some ACPI power button may not work without this.
In qemu arm64 with "virt" machine, with ACPI firmware,
enable devd check devd message by
and invoke following command in qemu monitor
(qemu) system_powerdown
and make sure some power button input event appear.
(setting sysctl hw.acpi.power_button_state=S5 is not work,
because ACPI tree does not have \_S5 object.)

There is multiple reason for this :
- This makes it easier to see which driver is needed for each SoC
- This makes it easier to create a custom config for one SoC
- This really reduce boot time (which some people might want)
Some explaination about the files :
- std.arm64 contains all standard kernel option
- std.dev contains all the standard kernel devices
- std.<soc> contains all drivers needed to boot on this SoC family
- <SOC> includes std.arm64, std.dev and std.<soc>
- GENERIC includes std.arm64, std.dev and all std.<soc>
