Subject: [PATCH 1/6] dt-bindings: clocks: add binding for generic clock-generators

In contrast to fixed clocks that are described as ungateable, boards
sometimes use additional clock generators for things like PCIe reference
clocks, that need actual supplies to get enabled and enable-gpios to be
toggled for them to work.

This adds a binding for such clock generators that are not configurable
themself, but need to handle supplies for them to work.

While in a lot of cases the type of the IC used is described in board
schematics, in some cases just a generic type description like
"100MHz, 3.3V" might also be used. The binding therefore allows both
cases. Specifying the type is of course preferred.

The clock-frequency is set in devicetree, because while some clock
generators have pins to decide between multipls output rates, those
are generally set statically on the board-layout-level.
