The current documentation does not clearly explain how to invert the SPI
CS signal to make it active-high. This makes it very difficult to
understand.

This patch adds a simple explanation on how to set the CS line in
active-high and adds an example to make it easier for users who need
that setup for their SPI peripherals.

Changes in v3:
- Use subject line reflecting the style of the subsystem (Mark Brown)
- Change compatible display to an existing one and adapt SPI MAX frequency (Rob
  Herring)

Changes in v2:
- Include header for GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH (Rob Herring)
