trigger-sources would be an input pin connected to an external trigger.
For example, the CNV pin could be connected to a trigger-source
provider to trigger a conversion. But there aren't any other digital
inputs, so I don't know what the 2nd source would be here.

As an example, see [1]. We could potentially use the same gpio
trigger-source for the conversion pin here. There is already
a similar binding for pwm triggers, so we could drop the separate
pwms binding as well an just have a single trigger-sources
property for the CNV pin that works for both gpio and pwm.

That sounds wrong. This would only make sense if an output of the
ADC was wired back to itself.

This doesn't make sense for the reason given above. These outputs
aren't wired back to inputs on the ADC. They are wired to interrupts
on the MCU, which is already described below.

The dmas aren't related to the ADC, so can be left out of the example.

Same as above - the GP pins aren't wired back to the ADC itself.
