Add binding for Mediatek-based GNSS receivers.

Signed-off-by: Loys Ollivier <lollivier@baylibre.com>
---

v3:
Removed the I2C and SPI interfaces references.
Removed the "mediatek,mt3339" compatible line.
Added the optional propertied (reset, fix)
Added the pin names for the optional properties.

v2:
Renamed bindings from Globaltop/gtop to Mediatek/mtk.
Moved current-speed as an optional propertie.
Removed the status line in the example.
Added "mediatek,mt3339" compatible.

reset-gpios is the standard name.

I'm thinking we might need a standard name for fix-gpios as well. This
isn't a feature that is globaltop (or mediatek) specific, and other
manufacturers provide similar functionality through pins named UI_FIX,
or even LCKIND (lock indicator).

The pin is typically used to drive an indicator LED AFAIU, but the
characteristics of the signal varies from device to device (fw to fw),
for example, pulse when no lock and low otherwise, or pulse when a 2d or
3d-fix is acquired, etc.

I'm not sure how useful the pulsing would be for software, but someone
might find a use for it in some form.

Rob, is this something we want to keep in the binding, and if so, how
about using a generic name such as "gnss-fix-gpios"?

Yes most GNSS recevivers provide a similar feature even if behavior of
the line differs.

Well it is useful to know when you start acquiring "valid" positionning
data. I'm using this as a trigger to start recording position.

Name "gnss-fix-gpios" sounds good to me.

Sure. As long as details like being a pulse and when the pulse occurs
are implied by compatible string. So we don't get an endless addition
of properties to describe those.

Sure, but a non-pulsing signal might have been easier to deal with if it
was meant to be used by software.
