of_spi: add generic binding support to specify cs gpio

This will allow to use gpio for chip select with no modification in the
driver binding

When use the cs-gpios, the gpio number will be passed via the cs_gpio field
and the number of chip select will automatically increased with max(hw cs, gpio cs).

So if for example the controller has 2 CS lines, and the cs-gpios
property looks like this:

cs-gpios = <&gpio1 0 0> <0> <&gpio1 1 0> <&gpio1 2 0>;

Then it should be configured so that num_chipselect = 4 with the
following mapping:

cs0 : &gpio1 0 0
cs1 : native
cs2 : &gpio1 1 0
cs3 : &gpio1 2 0
