docs: dt: writing-bindings: Document compatible and filename naming
Document established Devicetree bindings maintainers review practices:
1. Compatibles should not use bus suffixes to encode the type of
interface, because the parent bus node defines that interface, e.g.
"vendor,device" instead of "vendor,device-i2c" + "vendor,device-spi".
2. If the compatible represents the device as a whole, it should not
contain the type of device in the name.
3. Filenames should match compatible. The best if match is 100%, but if
binding has multiple compatibles, then one of the fallbacks should be
used. Alternatively a genericish name is allowed if it follows
"vendor,device" style.
