Add documentation for Cavium ThunderX2 CN99XX ARM64 processor family.
The the SoC will use the ID "cavium,thunderx2-cn9900".

Add documentation entry for the "cavium,thunder2" cpu core as well.

Is this the same as brcm,vulcan?
It will have a different CPU ID, with different implementer and part num,
but compatible with "brcm,vulcan". In the ThunderX2 dtsi file (once
ARCH_VULCAN goes away), we want to be compatable = "cavium,thunder2", with
maybe "brcm,vulcan" after that.
