sysfs: add support for binary attributes in groups
groups should be able to support binary attributes, just like it supports "normal" attributes. This lets us only handle one type of structure, groups, throughout the driver core and subsystems, making binary attributes a "full fledged" part of the driver model, and not something just "tacked on".
