dt-bindings: interrupt-controller: amazon,al-fic: Add mask selection

The block this driver calls a FIC is the generic Annapurna Labs interrupt
controller. It is built from groups of up to 32 triggers each; the number
of groups differs from one controller to another, and each group has its
own 0x40 register block.

A node in this binding describes one group, not a whole controller. reg
points at that group's 0x40 block, and the 32 hwirqs of the domain are
that group's triggers. A controller with several groups appears as several
nodes, and controllers cascade when a tree needs more triggers than one
controller has.

A group has one cause register and three mask registers, which decide
which output a set cause bit drives:

  0x10  info mask    gates the info output
  0x2c  error mask   gates the error output
  0x34  fatal mask   gates the fatal output

The three outputs are aggregated into three separate interrupt trees
(info, error, fatal); mapping one event to more than one severity is
forbidden by the interrupt methodology, so a group belongs to exactly one
tree. Which output a group drives is fixed when the SoC is wired and is
not discoverable from any register, so it must be described in the
devicetree.

The error and fatal outputs, and their mask registers, exist only on
controller revisions that implement them; earlier revisions provide the
info output only. A controller reports its revision in the group control
register (bits 29-28), so the revision itself does not need to appear in
the devicetree and no per-revision compatible string is needed.

Describe which output a group drives with a new optional property,
amazon,al-fic-mask (info, error or fatal; default info).
