staging: comedi: add comedi_release_hardware_device()
Add `comedi_release_hardware_device()` as a replacement for the call sequence `comedi_find_board_minor()`, `comedi_free_board_minor()`. This is slightly safer as we can make sure nothing funny happens to the found `comedi_file_info_table[]` entry in the middle of the sequence. Change `comedi_auto_unconfig()` to call the new function instead of the old sequence. Remove `comedi_find_board_minor()` as it has no other callers.
