On systems with a fixed display/touchscreen orientation it is important to
pass in the "correct" x and y coordinates based on the orientation.
Currently, to support landscape and portrait touchscreen-swapped-x-y
simply does the following:

Assuming touchscreen is as follows:
X: 1280 Y:800 programmed in touchscreen controller and also interchange
bit cleared. Assuming ts mounted in portrait mode.

1280 (X)
------
|    |
|    | 800 (Y)
|    |
|    |
------

800 (Y)
------
|    |
|    | 1280 (X)
|    |
|    |
------

However, the above isn't really what we want especially in distros that
assumes a fixed orientation. In this case what we really want is to
interchange the x and y coordinates so the Y coordinate can return a max
value of 1280 and X can return a max value of 800.

800 (X)
------
|    |
|    | 1280 (Y)
|    |
|    |
------

Since the driver is limited to the value reported by the touchscreen
controller this issue can't be fixed purely in the driver. Therefore,
add a new DT property that supports interchanging X and Y coordinates
internally within the hardware.
I'm not sure I follow why existing properties don't cover this.

Minimally this should be vendor specific and have a vendor prefix I 
think.
