gpio: 74x164: Use a single SPI transfer instead of multiple transfers
Currently the 74x164 driver assembles an SPI message from an array of
one-byte SPI transfers, one for each daisy-chained shift register, as
the first byte sent will end up in the last register.
This array is allocated and deallocated on each GPIO write access.
By storing the data in the internal buffer in reverse order, we can
use a single SPI transfer with the internal buffer directly, simplifying
the code a lot, and avoiding memory (de)allocations.
This also avoids transient values on the GPIO outputs when using an SPI
master that cannot keep the hardware chip select asserted in between
multiple transfers (and would need cs-gpios for proper operation).
