Probably should be in the slave side. We already have uart-has-rtscts
and rts/cts-gpios for the UART. Those mean we have RTS/CTS, but not
necessarily that we want to enable them.

In many cases, the driver may know what it needs.

Are they mutually-exclusive or both are used at the same time? What
are the dependencies between the interfaces?

Add this to the slave binding doc with some caveats as to when this
should or should not be used as we discussed.
