[PATCH v1 2/2] dt-bindings: riscv: Add DT binding for RISC-V ISA extensions

RISC-V ISA extensions can be single letter or multi-letter names.
The single letter extensions are mostly base extensions and encoded in
"riscv,isa" DT property. However, parsing the multi-letter extensions
via the isa string is cumbersome and is not scalable.

Add a new DT node for multi-letter extensions.
