gpio: add DT bindings for existing consumer flags

Browse Source 
It is customary for GPIO controllers to support open drain/collector
and open source/emitter configurations. Add standard GPIO line flags
to account for this and augment the documentation to say that these
are the most generic bindings.

Several people approached me to add new flags to the lines, and this
makes sense, but let's first bind up the most common cases before we
start to add exotic stuff.

Thanks to H. Nikolaus Schaller for ideas on how to encode single-ended
wiring such as open drain/source and open collector/emitter.

gpio-specifier may encode: bank, pin position inside the bank,
whether pin is open-drain and whether pin is logically inverted.
Exact meaning of each specifier cell is controller specific, and must
be documented in the device tree binding for the device. Use the macros
defined in include/dt-bindings/gpio/gpio.h whenever possible:

Most controllers are however specifying a generic flag bitfield
in the last cell, so for these, use the macros defined in

GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH is 0, so in this example gpio-specifier is "18 0" and encodes
GPIO pin number, and GPIO flags as accepted by the "qe_pio_e" gpio-controller.
Optional standard bitfield specifiers for the last cell:
- Bit 0: 0 means active high, 1 means active low
- Bit 1: 1 means single-ended wiring, see:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-ended_triode
When used with active-low, this means open drain/collector, see:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_collector
When used with active-high, this means open source/emitter
