spi: support controllers with multiple data lanes

Add support for SPI controllers with multiple physical SPI data lanes.
(A data lane in this context means lines connected to a serializer, so a
controller with two data lanes would have two serializers in a single
controller).

This is common in the type of controller that can be used with parallel
flash memories, but can be used for general purpose SPI as well.

To indicate support, a controller just needs to set ctlr->num_data_lanes
to something greater than 1. Peripherals indicate which lane they are
connected to via device tree (ACPI support can be added if needed).

The spi-{tx,rx}-bus-width DT properties can now be arrays. The length of
the array indicates the number of data lanes, and each element indicates
the bus width of that lane. For now, we restrict all lanes to have the
same bus width to keep things simple. Support for an optional controller
lane mapping property is also implemented.
