What does 0 (cell 1) represent?

Will compiler complain a warning if missing "reg" property as we already have
the unit-address?

Introduced two new compatible string?

Overally I'm still not quite understand this new approach, may need some more
time to digest.

A simple question is: Do we lose the power domain tree hierarchy?
The original tree view seems like more straightforward. Not sure why need
to do like that.

And overally this new approach seems much more complicated than the old one
due to we have to handle the special multilevel power domains.

I'm a bit confusing whether it's worthy to switch to this new complicated
one and what's real advantage we can get comparing to the old simple way?
I will spend more time to research.
Hopefully Rob and You can help clarify a bit more to help the understanding.
