[RFC] usb: typec: ucsi: Schedule connector worker on freezable workqueue

Commit Message

Currently, the UCSI connector worker is scheduled on the non-freezable
system workqueue. During system suspend, on a plug/unplug event, the
worker can run before the devices have actually resumed. The UCSI
instances can implement operations that might need to do some HW accesses
while the devices are still suspended.

Scheduling the USCI connector worker on the freezable system workqueue
instead will ensure the devices are resumed by the time the worker is
scheduled to run.

Sending this as an RFC since I'm not really sure if this should be done
in the ucsi generic implementation or in the pmic glink UCSI instance.

For context, on some Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite laptops, there are some
i2c interfaced USB Type-C retimers (ParadeTech PS8830) that need to be
configured on each plug/unplug event. Since the i2c controller is
suspended when the UCSI connector worker gets scheduled, it results in
the following:
