Add binding doc for i.MX8MN pinctrl driver.

Signed-off-by: Anson Huang <redacted>
Looks mostly OK to me, but I'd like the maintainers to review, so Dong et al
please look at this!

+Required properties:
+- compatible: "fsl,imx8mn-iomuxc"
So should this not be "nxp,imx8mn-iomuxc"
or "nxp,freescale-imx8mn-iomuxc" or something these days? The vendor name
is nxp is it not.

I was complaining to the DT maintainers at one point that these companies
seem to buy each other left and right so this vendor nomenclature is dubious,
but I guess at least it should reflect the vendor that produced the chip or
something.

If everyone is happy with "fsl,*" I will not complain though.
(i.e. if the maintainers ACK it.)
We preferred to keep "fsl,*" for Freescale i.MX product line according to last discussion.
And we already did this way for most i.MX devices.

We do not see serious problem with 'fsl' prefix, so would rather stay
with it.
