dt-bindings: remoteproc: Add Qualcomm RPM processor/subsystem

On Qualcomm platforms, most subsystems (e.g. audio/modem DSP) are
described as remote processors in the device tree, with a dedicated
node where properties and services related to them can be described.

The Resource Power Manager (RPM) is also such a subsystem, with a
remote processor that is running a special firmware. Unfortunately,
the RPM never got a dedicated node representing it properly in the
device tree. Most of the RPM services are described below a top-level
/smd or /rpm-glink node.

However, SMD/GLINK is just one of the communication channels to the RPM
firmware. For example, the MPM interrupt functionality provided by the
RPM does not use SMD/GLINK but writes directly to a special memory
region allocated by the RPM firmware in combination with a mailbox.
Currently there is no good place in the device tree to describe this
functionality. It doesn't belong below SMD/GLINK but it's not an
independent top-level device either.

Introduce a new "qcom,rpm-proc" compatible that allows describing the
RPM as a remote processor/subsystem like all others. The SMD/GLINK node
is moved to a "smd-edge"/"glink-edge" subnode consistent with other
existing bindings. Additional subnodes (e.g. interrupt-controller for
MPM, rpm-master-stats) can be also added there.

Deprecate using the old top-level /smd node since all SMD edges
are now specified as subnodes of the remote processor.
