Define bindings for stm32 timer trigger
version 3:
- change file name
- add cross reference with mfd bindings
version 2:
- only keep one compatible
- add DT parameters to set lists of the triggers: one list describe the triggers created by the device another one give the triggers accepted by the device

BUT, this is a Linux-implementation-ism. Just use pairs of integers and create the Linux-ism strings in the driver.
The goal is not to make things easier in driver but to be able to share the triggers names with other drivers like DAC or ADC. If each driver have to create it own triggers names it will more difficult to keep them coherent than it they share the same definitions
Do it by documentation. This will be effectively ABI going forward so fixed once it is defined. Should be fairly easy to tell during testing if someone has messed it up ;)
