As I mentioned in your other patch, I amn't sure what the actual value
is in being told about "sdtrig" itself if so many of the CSRs are
optional. I think we should define pseudo extensions that represent
usable subsets that are allowed by riscv,isa-extensions, such as
those you describe here: sdtrig + mcontext, sdtrig + scontext and
sdtrig + hcontext. Probably also for strig + mscontext. What
additional value does having a debug child node give us that makes
it worth having over something like the above?

Thanks,
Conor.
