It's already required by matrix-keypad, so I assumed the requirement
is inherited by twl4030-keypad. The other matrix-keymap based
bindings assume the same.

keypad,num-rows and keypad,num-columns are only stated explicitly,
because they are optional in matrix-keymap, but required by
twl4030-keympad.

Yes, when supported it means the same. I can add it to
keymap-matrix.txt.
