[PATCH v2 3/5] dt-bindings: phy: qcom,sc8280xp-qmp-usb43dp-phy: Document static lanes mapping

The QMP USB3/DP Combo PHY hosts an USB3 phy and a DP PHY on top
of a combo glue to route either lanes to the 4 shared physical lanes.

The routing of the lanes can be:
- 2 DP + 2 USB3
- 4 DP
- 2 USB3

The layout of the lanes was designed to be mapped and swapped
related to the USB-C Power Delivery negociation, so it supports
a finite set of mappings inherited by the USB-C Altmode layouts.

Nevertheless those QMP Comby PHY can be statically used to
drive a DisplayPort connector, DP->HDMI bridge, USB3 A Connector,
etc... without an USB-C connector and no PD events.

Add a property that documents the static lanes mapping to
each underlying PHY to allow supporting boards directly
connecting USB3 and DisplayPort lanes to the QMP Combo
lanes.

+      a in a Type-C dynamic setup using USB-C PD Events to change the mapping.
+      The 4 lanes can either routed to the underlying DP PHY or the USB3 PHY.
+      Only 2 of the lanes can be connected to the USB3 PHY, but the 4 lanes can
+      be connected to the DP PHY.
