On some platforms, the Type-C plug orientation is given on a GPIO line.

Document this optional Type-C connector property, and take the
assumption an active level represents an inverted/flipped orientation.

Should this be a property of the connector or of the parent device node? I mean, unlike usb-b-connector (where ID and Vbus can be simple GPIOs nearly directly connected to the pins of the connector) for the USB-C the orientation is not a connector's GPIO, but rather some additional not elementary logic.

I don't see the issue, orientation is a property of the connector itself,
even if it's provided by another ic.

I'd argue that the _gpio_ is not a property of the connector itself. Generic USB-C connector will not have such orientation GPIO. But probably it is a minor issue.
