Implement a nice generalization suggested by Bobby Noelte.
Instead of having a generic #cells key in bindings, have source-specific
*-cells keys. Some examples:
interrupt-cells:
- irq
- priority
- flags
gpio-cells:
- pin
- flags
pwm-cells:
- channel
- period
This makes bindings a bit easier to read, and allows a node to be a
controller for many different 'phandle-array' properties.
The prefix before *-cells is derived from the property name, meaning
there's no fixed set of *-cells keys. This is possible because of the
earlier 'phandle-array' generalization.
The older #cells key is supported for backwards compatibility, but
generates a deprecation warning.

Instead of
properties:
compatible:
constraint: "foo"
, just have
compatible: "foo"
at the top level of the binding.
For backwards compatibility, the old 'properties: compatible: ...' form
is still accepted for now, and is treated the same as a single-element
'compatible:'.
The old syntax was inspired by dt-schema (though it isn't
dt-schema-compatible), which is in turn a thin wrapper around
json-schema (the idea is to transform .dts files into YAML and then
verify them).
Maybe the idea was to gradually switch the syntax over to dt-schema and
then be able to use unmodified dt-schema bindings, but dt-schema is
really a different kind of tool (a completely standalone linter), and
works very differently from our stuff (see schemas/dt-core.yaml in the
dt-schema repo to get an idea of just how differently).
Better to keep it simple.
This commit also piggybacks some clarifications to the binding template
re. '#cells:'.

The 'category: required/optional' setting for properties is just a
yes/no thing. Using a boolean makes it clearer, so have
'required: true/false' instead.
Print a clear error when 'category:' is used:
edtlib.EDTError: please put 'required: true' instead of 'category:
required' in 'properties: foo: ...' in
test-bindings/sub-node-parent.yaml - 'category' has been removed
The old scripts in scripts/dts/ ignore this setting, and only print a
warning if 'category: required' in an inherited binding is changed to
'category: optional'. Remove that code, since the new scripts already
have the same check.
The replacement was done with
git ls-files 'dts/bindings/*.yaml' | xargs sed -i \
-e 's/category:\s*required/required: true/' \
-e 's/category:\s*optional/required: false/'
dts/binding-template.yaml is updated as well.

In most cases #<FOO>-cells should be a constant. For example in spi
controller #address-cells should be 1, and #size-cells should be 0.
Use the const attribute to specify such single known values. Add const
value to missing bindings which have cells.

Introduce a intc.yaml that interrupt controller bindings should inherit
from. intc.yaml defines the properties "interrupt-controller" and
"#interrupt-cells" which all interrupt controllers should have.

No binding has anything but 'version: 0.1', and the code in scripts/dts/
never does anything with it except print a warning if it isn't there.
It's undocumented what it means.
I suspect it's overkill if it's meant to be the binding format version.
If we'd need to tell different versions from each other, we could change
some other minor thing in the format, and it probably won't be needed.
Remove the 'version' fields from the bindings and the warning from the
scripts/dts/ scripts.
The new device tree script will give an error when unknown fields appear
in bindings.
The deletion was done with
git ls-files 'dts/bindings/*.yaml' | xargs sed -i '/^\s*version: /d'
Some blank lines at the beginning of bindings were removed as well.

We removed support for cell_string some time ago, so we have some stale
references in a number of bindings that we can remove.

Now that the generation script doesn't look at the "generation" in the
YAML, we can remove it from the binding files.

YAML document separators are needed e.g. when doing
$ cat doc1.yaml doc2.yaml | <parser>
For the bindings, we never parse concatenated documents. Assume we don't
for any other .yaml files either.
Having document separators in e.g. base.yaml makes !include a bit
confusing, since the !included files are merged and not separate
documents (the merging is done in Python code though, so it makes no
difference for behavior).
The replacement was done with
$ git ls-files '*.yaml' | \
xargs sed -i -e '${/\s*\.\.\.\s*/d;}' -e 's/^\s*---\s*$//'
First pattern removes ... at the end of files, second pattern clears a
line with a lone --- on it.
Some redundant blank lines at the end of files were cleared with
$ git ls-files '*.yaml' | xargs sed -i '${/^\s*$/d}'
This is more about making sure people can understand why every part of a
binding is there than about removing some text.

Move common properties like 'compatible', 'reg', 'reg-names',
'interrupts', 'interrupt-names', and 'label' into one common base.yaml
that all the other yaml's can inherit from. This removes both
duplication and inconsistent definition.
The device specific yamls just need to say if a property is 'required'
or not.
NOTE: due to some generation conflicts we did not covert
'soc-nv-flash.yaml' to use base.yaml.

Add 'generation: define' directive to 'compatible' property.
When existing for a type of device, move compatible property
description in device base structure (eg: i2c.yaml)
