Refactors all of the counter drivers to use a shared driver class
initialization priority configuration, CONFIG_COUNTER_INIT_PRIORITY, to
allow configuring counter drivers separately from other devices. This is
similar to other driver classes like I2C and SPI.
The default is set to CONFIG_KERNEL_INIT_PRIORITY_DEVICE to preserve the
existing default initialization priority for most drivers. The
exceptions are the maxim_ds3231 and mcp7940n drivers which have a
dependency on a SPI driver and must therefore initialize later than the
default device priority.

Microchip MCP7940N is a Real-Time Clock/Calendar. It operates on a I2C
bus. It can be used to set a calendar time and has two alarm channels.
When an alarm is asserted the state of the MPF pin of the MCP7940N will
change (depending on gpio active high/active low setting) to trigger an
interrupt.
