Several new properties to allow PWM fan working as a cooling device have been
combined into this single commit.

Signed-off-by: Lukasz Majewski <l.majewski@samsung.com>

Changes for v2:
- Rename cooling-pwm-values to cooling-levels
- Remove default-pulse-width property and stick to default hwmon policy

Patch prefix should look something like 'dt-bindings: ...', or better
'Documentation: devicetree: ...', or 'Documentation: bindings: ...'
