Many SPI controllers need to add properties to slave devices. This could
be the delay in clock or data lines, etc. These properties are
controller specific but need to be defined in the slave node because
they are per-slave and there can be multiple slaves attached to a
controller.

If these properties are not added to the slave binding, then the dtbs
check emits a warning. But these properties do not make much sense in
the slave binding because they are controller-specific and they will
just pollute every slave binding. So this binding is added to collect
all such properties from all such controllers. Slave bindings should
simply refer to this binding and they should be rid of the warnings.

There are some limitations with this approach. Firstly, there is no way
to specify required properties. The schema contains properties for all
controllers and there is no way to know which controller is being used.
Secondly, there is no way to restrict additional properties. Since this
schema will be used with an allOf operator, additionalProperties needs
to be true. In addition, the slave schema will have to set
unevaluatedProperties: false.

Despite these limitations, this appears to be the best solution to this
problem that doesn't involve modifying existing tools or schema specs.

Changes in v2:
- Move other subnode properties listed in spi-controller.yaml to
  spi-slave-props.yaml
- Move the Cadence controller-specific properties out of
  spi-slave-props.yaml. They will be added in a separate file.
- Add a reference to spi-slave-props.yaml in spi-controller.yaml.
- Update description.

Probably should replace 'slave' with 'peripheral' throughout[1].

You can drop 'compatible'.
