Convert the old text binding to new YAML.
While at it, make some changes to the binding:
- The version numbers are not documented publicly. The version also does
not change programming interface. Remove it until it's really needed.
- A few clocks are missing in old binding file. Add them to match the real
hardware.

Drop this fallback, your later driver change does not use it, so neither
should have binding. Explain in commit msg, that old binding was
incorrect (we discussed it a lot) thus you are making such change during
conversion.
What about deprecating "hisilicon,hisi-femac-vn" compatibles and
introduce a new generic compatible "hisilicon,hisi-femac" instead? This
way, We can keep backward compatibility.
Best regards,
Krzysztof
