HID: provide a helper for validating hid reports
commit 331415ff16a12147d57d5c953f3a961b7ede348b upstream. Many drivers need to validate the characteristics of their HID report during initialization to avoid misusing the reports. This adds a common helper to perform validation of the report exisitng, the field existing, and the expected number of values within the field.
