video: backlight: Support PWMs without a known period_ns

The PWM device provided by Chrome OS EC doesn't really support anything
other than setting a relative duty cycle. To support it as a backlight,
this patch makes the PWM period optional in the device tree and pretends
the valid brightness range is its period_ns.

Also adds a sandbox test for a PWM channel that has a fixed period,
checking that the resulting duty_cycle matches on a set_config() even if
the requested period_ns can't be set.
