Implement rescan to register and probe newly added devices via device
tree overlays.
While this is easy to do at SPI core level this is not the whole truth.
Many SPI controllers do not use their native chipselects for the SPI
devices, but GPIOs instead. These currently won't be rescanned when new
devices are added, so the chipselects for the new devices must be be
present in the base device tree already. You have been warned.
