spi: Add DMA support for spi_flash_read()
Few SPI devices provide accelerated read interfaces to read from SPI-NOR flash devices. These hardwares also support DMA to transfer data from flash to memory either via mem-to-mem DMA or dedicated slave DMA channels. Hence, add support for DMA in order to improve throughput and reduce CPU load. Use spi_map_buf() to get sg table for the buffer and pass it to SPI driver.
