[PATCH v2 4/5] dt-bindings/perf: Add Arm CoreSight PMU

Add a binding for implementations of the Arm CoreSight Performance
Monitoring Unit Architecture. Not to be confused with CoreSight debug
and trace, the PMU architecture defines a standard MMIO interface for
event counters following a similar design to the CPU PMU architecture,
where the implementation and most of its features are discoverable
through ID registers.

v2: Use reg-io-width instead of a new property; tweak descriptions
