Allow the default user to access the new gpio character device

Assessment
This issue has not been assessed yet.
Description
I want to switch Processing from using the legacy sysfs interface to the new character device interface (/dev/gpiochip*). To make this possible, those devices should be owned by the gpio group.
The following line, added to 99-com.rules achieves this:
SUBSYSTEM=="gpio", GROUP="gpio", MODE="0660"
Could this be added for upcoming Raspbian releases? Thanks!
