The lists managing the device-links can be traversed to
find the link between two devices. The device_link_add() APIs
does traverse these lists to check if there's already a link
setup between the two devices.
So, add a new APIs, device_link_find(), to find an existing
device link between two devices - suppliers and consumers.
