Add optional max expected current property which allows calibrating
the ina sensor in order to achieve requested precision. Document
the changes in Documentation/hwmon/ina2xx.

This is introducing new generic devicetree bindings..  
I'm not totally sure we want to do this rather than having a
manufacturer specific binding...  I don't have a good feeling for
how common this will be in other devices.

If it's generic, then this isn't necessarily the place to define it.

I agree, this should be manufacturer-specific property. Thanks.

Also needs a unit suffix as defined in property-units.txt.
