Some flash devices, eg. gd25lq64c, enable quad mode by default after spi_nor_parse_bfpt(). However, the systems using these flash devices may required the quad mode to be turned off for using write protection or to avoid a potential short issue[1]. Add a disable-quad-mode property in devicetree that system can use it to override the quad mode status parsed from BFPT.
