spi: add multi_lane_mode field to struct spi_transfer
Add a new multi_lane_mode field to struct spi_transfer to allow peripherals that support multiple SPI lanes to be used with a single SPI controller. This requires both the peripheral and the controller to have multiple serializers connected to separate data lanes. It could also be used with a single controller and multiple peripherals that are functioning as a single logical device (similar to parallel memories).
