[2/2] gpio: use "asserted" and "deasserted" instead of "high" and "low"

For active-low GPIOs the currently available nomenclature requires
regular explaination to the non-enlightened folks, e.g. because a hog
defined as:

	someline {
		gpio-hog;
		gpios = <24 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
		output-high;
	}

results in the line being set to the physical low level.

So use the terms "asserted" and "deasserted" which are less ambigous and
keep the old names as synonyms. The above example can now be written as:

	someline {
		gpio-hog;
		gpios = <24 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
		output-asserted;
	}

where it is less surprising that the output is set to a low level.
