[PATCH v3 4/5] dt-bindings: arm: atmel,at91rm9200-st: convert to DT schema

Convert System Timer binding to YAML format.
Changes during conversion:
- Add "#address-cells" and "#size-cells" to the properties and required as
  watchdog is defined as a child node to the timer parent node.
- Define watchdog as a pattern property along with unit address in
  examples.

+description:
+  The System Timer (ST) module in AT91RM9200 provides periodic tick and
+  alarm capabilities. It is exposed as a simple multi-function device
+  (simple-mfd + syscon) because it shares its register space and interrupt
+  with other System Controller blocks.
