There are plenty of delays that have been introduced in SPI core. Most of
them are in micro-seconds, some need to be in nano-seconds, and some in
clock-cycles.

For some of these delays (related to transfers & CS timing) it may make
sense to have a `spi_delay` struct that abstracts these a bit.

The important element of these delays [for unification] seems to be the
`unit` of the delay.
It looks like micro-seconds is good enough for most people, but every-once
in a while, some delays seem to require other units of measurement.

This change adds the `spi_delay` struct & a `spi_delay_exec()` function
that processes a `spi_delay` object/struct to execute the delay.
It's a copy of the `cs_change_delay` mechanism, but without the default
for 10 uS.

The clock-cycle delay unit is a bit special, as it needs to be bound to an
`spi_transfer` object to execute.
