I think "active-high" is more explicit about what it does, but I'm not
too bothered about it. Given it isn't a required property and the
absence of the property means active-low (for backwards compatibility
and alignment with the default hardware behaviour) the property is a
flag, not a boolean, so it does need a type change at the very least.
