spi: core: Add support for registering SPI slave controllers

Add support for registering SPI slave controllers using the existing SPI
master framework:
  - SPI slave controllers must use spi_alloc_slave() instead of
    spi_alloc_master(), and should provide an additional callback
    "slave_abort" to abort an ongoing SPI transfer request,
  - SPI slave controllers are added to a new "spi_slave" device class,
  - SPI slave handlers can be bound to the SPI slave device represented
    by an SPI slave controller using a DT child node named "slave",
  - Alternatively, (un)binding an SPI slave handler to the SPI slave
    device represented by an SPI slave controller can be done by
    (un)registering the slave device through a sysfs virtual file named
    "slave".

From the point of view of an SPI slave protocol handler, an SPI slave
controller looks almost like an ordinary SPI master controller. The only
exception is that a transfer request will block on the remote SPI
master, and may be cancelled using spi_slave_abort().
