Notes:
    Changes in v6:
    - Collect R-by from Geert and Rob
    Changes in v5:
    - Preserve formatting, maxItems set to 8, group GPIO specifiers
      as suggested by Geert
    Changes in v4:
    - Add ASCII art diagram showing arrangement of segments
    Changes in v3:
    - Set maxItems: 7
    - Expand description of segment-gpios property.
    - Use compatible = "gpio-7-segment" as suggested by Rob
    Changes in v2:
    - Use compatible = "generic-gpio-7seg" to keep checkpatch.pl happy
