[Impact]

Core24 exposes the raspi GPIO sysfs interface. It's a deprecated kernel interface that was
disabled in Kinetic. Snapd needs to change but that won't happen for core24 so we need to
turn it back on :-(

See bug #2096665.

[Fix]

Enable CONFIG_GPIO_SYSFS

[Test Case]

See bug #2096665.

[Where Problems Could Occur]

GPIO access through sysfs might interfere with other GPIO users like gpiod which is the
official way nowadays.
