gpiolib: add support for changing value polarity in sysfs

Drivers may use gpiolib sysfs as part of their public user space
interface. The GPIO number and polarity might change from board to
board. The gpio_export_link() call can be used to hide the GPIO number
from user space. Add support for also hiding the GPIO line polarity
changes from user space.
