regulator: consumer.rst: document bulk operations
The current consumer documentation does not include bulk operations, providing an example of how to acquire multiple regulators by calling regulator_get() multiple times. That solution is valid and slightly simpler for a small amount of regulators, but it does not scale well. Document the bulk operations to get, enable and disable regulators.
