[PATCH v6 1/2] dt-bindings: Update scmi node description

Add '#feature-domain-cells' property description to the scmi node.
This property makes scmi node as feature-domain-controller provider, which
allows consumers to provide scmi node with the device_ids of the devices,
which are using scmi protocols to control clocks/resets/power-domains etc.
The device_ids could be used to set the device permissions for the
Firmware using BASE_SET_DEVICE_PERMISSIONS message (see 4.2.2.10 of [0]).
Device permissions management described in DEN 0056, Section 4.2.2.10 [0].

For SCMI this property is used by Trusted Agent to set the device
permissions for the Non-Trusted Agents.
Trusted and non-trusted Agent terms described in Section 4.1.1 [0].

Changes v1 -> V2:
   - update parameter name, made it xen-specific
   - add xen vendor bindings

Changes V2 -> V3:
   - update parameter name, make it generic
   - update parameter format, add link to controller
   - do not include xen vendor bindings as already upstreamed

Changes V3 -> V4:
   - introduce domain controller provider/consumer device tree bindings
   - making scmi node to act as domain controller provider when the
     device permissions should be configured

Changes V4 -> V5:
   - rename domain-controller to feature-domain-controller
   - feature-domains format fixes

Changes V5 -> V6:
   - formatting fixes
