spi: spi-mem: Extend the SPI mem interface to set a custom memory name
When porting (Q)SPI controller drivers from the MTD layer to the SPI
layer, the naming scheme for the memory devices changes. To be able
to keep compatibility with the old drivers naming scheme, a name
field is added to struct spi_mem and a hook is added to let controller
drivers set a custom name for the memory device.

Example for the FSL QSPI driver:

Name with the old driver: 21e0000.qspi,
or with multiple devices: 21e0000.qspi-0, 21e0000.qspi-1, ...

Name with the new driver without spi_mem_get_name: spi4.0

spi: Extend the core to ease integration of SPI memory controllers
Some controllers are exposing high-level interfaces to access various
kind of SPI memories. Unfortunately they do not fit in the current
spi_controller model and usually have drivers placed in
drivers/mtd/spi-nor which are only supporting SPI NORs and not SPI
memories in general.

This is an attempt at defining a SPI memory interface which works for
all kinds of SPI memories (NORs, NANDs, SRAMs).
