Add binding document for Broadcom BCM23550 SoC.

BCM23550 has a Cluster Dormant Control IP block that holds cores
in an idle state. Introduce a new CPU enable method in which the CDC is
accessed to bring the core online.

+Broadcom Kona Family CPU Enable Method
+--------------------------------------
+This binding defines the enable method used for starting secondary
+CPUs in the following Broadcom SoCs:
+  BCM23550
+
+The enable method is specified by defining the following required
+properties in the "cpu" device tree node:
+  - enable-method = "brcm,bcm23550-cpu-method";
"-cpu-method" is a bit redundant. brcm,bc23550 is probably sufficient.
+  - secondary-boot-reg = <...>;
+
+The secondary-boot-reg property is a u32 value that specifies the
+physical address of the register used to request the ROM holding pen
+code release a secondary CPU.  The value written to the register is
+formed by encoding the target CPU id into the low bits of the
+physical start address it should jump to.
