All devices used in their "normal"/intended configuration do not require management of the power domains, as the hardware itself will request them automatically. Thus by default, don't specify the power domains to avoid redundant resume/suspend cycles, which are slow and require threading (IPC) making devices not isr ok.

The gpio pad groups are redundant if pin retention is handled per pin, and the quirky cross domain feature is managed by the application. Remove it entirely. Signed-off-by: Bjarki Arge Andreasen <[email protected]>
GPIO pad power domain management is not neccesary if the quirky cross domain feature is handled at the application level. Replace it with directly setting/clearing pin retention, as hardware will force power domains on automatically. Signed-off-by: Bjarki Arge Andreasen <[email protected]>
Replace the pad group integration with directly setting/clearing pin retention for output pins if required, since the pad group integration is redundant if the quirky cross domain feature is managed by the application. Signed-off-by: Bjarki Arge Andreasen <[email protected]>

The hardware in the nRF54H is designed to automatically handle power domains by default. There are quirky configurations that can be used which require additional management of power domains, but these are uncommon and must be managed from the application in most cases. This PR makes the common cases the default, which is more efficient and provides better flexibility to the application, while still allowing for the quirky configurations to be managed from the application if that is required.
