PCI/sysfs: Expose PCI device serial number

Add a single sysfs read-only interface for reading PCI device serial
numbers from userspace in a programmatic way. This device attribute uses
the same hexadecimal 1-byte dashed formatting as lspci serial number
capability output. If a device doesn't support the serial number
capability, the serial_number sysfs attribute will not be visible.
