Subject: [PATCH] staging: greybus: uart: migrated from IDR to XArray API

Replaced the IDR API with the XArray API for managing TTY minor numbers.
This addresses the checkpatch warning about DEFINE_IDR being deprecated.

Following changes include:
- Replaced DEFINE_IDR with DEFINE_XARRAY_ALLOC
- Replace idr_find with xa_load
- Replace idr_alloc with xa_alloc
- Replace idr_remove with xa_erase
- Replace idr_destroy with xa_destroy
- Updated the include to use xarray

No core functional changes, just modernized the code to a new API.
