My initial thinking is those are general type-c properties, which can be applied to
type-C connector or used by PD microcontroller directly (my example),  I want
to get inputs on how this can be handled properly, so do you think a separated
node(e.g. type-c connector) is required to describe all the capability of the type-c
port has, then a type-c related driver get the phandle of it?

As type-C with PD has many properties to complete the description for diff usage,
so this is just a first step to have the basic power related bindings.
