[PATCH 1/2] dt-bindings: gpio: nxp,pcf8575: add reset GPIO

A few of the I2C GPIO expander chips supported by this binding have a
RESETN pin to be able to reset the chip. The chip is held in reset while
the pin is low, therefore the polarity of reset-gpios is expected to
reflect that, i.e. a GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH means the GPIO will be held low
for reset and released high, GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW means the GPIO will be held
high for reset and released low.

Out of the supported chips, only PCA9670, PCA9671, PCA9672 and PCA9673
show a RESETN pin in their datasheets. They all share the same reset
timings, that is 4+us reset pulse[0] and 100+us reset time[0].

When performing a reset, "The PCA9670 registers and I2C-bus state
machine will be held in their default state until the RESET input is
once again HIGH."[1] meaning we now know the state of each line
controlled by the GPIO expander. Therefore, setting lines-initial-states
and reset-gpios both does not make sense and their presence is XOR'ed.
