[PATCH 5/6] dmaengine: Add union and dma_slave_get_config() helper for dma_slave_config

Previously, src_ and dst_ prefixes were used to distinguish address,
addr_width, maxburst, and port_window_size fields. This required drivers
to add conditional logic based on transfer direction.
Introduce struct dma_slave_cfg to group these fields and add the
dma_slave_get_config() helper to retrieve the source or destination
configuration based on the DMA transfer direction. This reduces
direction-based branching in drivers and improves readability.
Use a union to preserve the old field naming and maintain compatibility.
