devicetree: bindings: dsa: qca8k: Document internal mdio definition

Document new way of declare mapping of internal PHY to port.
The new implementation directly declare the PHY connected to the port
by adding a node in the switch node. The driver detect this and register
an internal mdiobus using the mapping defined in the mdio node.

mdio-bus each subnode describing a port needs to have a valid phandle
referencing the internal PHY it is connected to. This is because there's no
N:N mapping of port and PHY id.
To declare the internal mdio-bus configuration, declare a mdio node in the
switch node and declare the phandle for the port referencing the internal
PHY is connected to. In this config a internal mdio-bus is registered and
the mdio MASTER is used as communication.
Don't use mixed external and internal mdio-bus configurations, as this is
not supported by the hardware.
