But there can be more connectors/cc-lines per IC, for example EZ-PD CCG5[1].

Bindings proposed here are OF bindings, I suppose the most important is
to follow OF specification and guidelines and these bindings tries to
follow it.
It looks like it should not be a problem for fwnode framework to handle
such bindings, but it is just my guess. I have not seen any fwnode*
specification I am not sure what is the real purpose of this framework,
but it seems to be just in-kernel abstraction for different firmware
standards (OF, ACPI), so even if it lacks at the moment some
functionality it should not be a barrier for OF bindings.
