PCI: qcom: Keep PERST# GPIO state as-is during probe

This commit changes the PERST# GPIO request to use GPIOD_ASIS instead of
GPIOD_OUT_HIGH. This preserves the existing GPIO state configured by the
bootloader or firmware to avoid unintentionally asserting reset during
probe.

[Severity: High]
If the bootloader leaves the PERST# pin floating or as an input, will
this cause gpiod_set_value_cansleep() to silently fail later?

When using GPIOD_ASIS, if the pin was not previously configured as an
output, GPIOD_FLAG_IS_OUT will not be set in the GPIO descriptor.

Later in qcom_pcie_host_init(), the driver attempts to toggle the reset
pin by calling gpiod_set_value_cansleep() via __qcom_pcie_perst_assert().

Because gpiod_set_value_cansleep() enforces directionality, it will
return -EPERM if the pin is not configured as an output. Since
__qcom_pcie_perst_assert() ignores the return value of
gpiod_set_value_cansleep(), the reset line might never actually be driven.

Could this break PCIe link initialization on platforms where the
bootloader hasn't set the GPIO direction to output?
