[PATCH] ARM: dts: stm32: Prefer HW RTC on DHCOM SoM

The DHCOM SoM has two RTC, one is the STM32 RTC built into the SoC
and another is Microcrystal RV RTC. By default, only the later has
battery backup, the former does not. The order in which the RTCs
are probed on boot is random, which means the kernel might pick up
system time from the STM32 RTC which has no battery backup. This
then leads to incorrect initial system time setup, even though the
HW RTC has correct time configured in it.

Add DT alias entries, so that the RTCs get assigned fixed IDs and
the HW RTC is always picked by the kernel as the default RTC, thus
resulting in correct system time in early userspace.
