We should specify the properties a device following the spec should
use. These are the common properties we expect all devices should be
using.

Broken devices can however have additional properties, defined in
their own binding. And if we see a pattern for broken properties, we
could pull them out into a -broken.yaml binding, which the broken
devices could share.
