Provide functions to access arbitrary GPIO pins and vectors

This change adds utility functions which allow to read any GPIO pin,
    as well as a vector of GPIO pin values.

As presented, these functions will be available to Sandy Bridge and
    Ivy Bridge systems only.

There is no error checking: trying to read GPIO pin number which
    exceeds actual number of pins will return zero, trying to read GPIO
    which is not actually configured as such will return unpredictable
    value.

When reading a GPIO pin vector, the pin numbers are passed in an
    array, terminated by -1. For instance, to read GPIO pins 4, 2, 15 as a
    three bit number GPIO4 * 4 + GPIO2 * 2 + GPIO15 * 1, one should pass
    pointer to array of {4, 2, 15, -1}.
