Simplify the lifecycle of the sysfs attributes by letting the device
core manage them.

Signed-off-by: Thomas Weißschuh <linux@weissschuh.net>

Changes in v2:
- Add fix to validate buffer type validation (patch 1)
- Drop usage of devm-APIs as these are unusable for unbound devices
- Evaluate _STR on each sysfs access
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240613-acpi-sysfs-groups-v1-0-665e0deb052a@weissschuh.net

If this is not urgent, and I don't think it is, I'd rather defer it to
the 6.12 cycle (that is, I'd apply it after the upcoming 6.11 merge
window).

Thanks!
