In v2, I actually used a separate st,vl53l1x.yaml binding with
`xshut-gpios` and a required `vdd-supply`.
But Krzysztof pointed out that they share the same pins so the
existing st,vl53l0x.yaml should suffice,
using reset as the xshut pin.

I think a choice has to be made here:
1. Either I use the st,vl53l0x.yaml binding with wrong pin name and
optional vdd-supply to not break existing code.
2. Or use a separate binding st,vl53l1x.yaml with 1. correct pin name,
and 2. require vdd-supply

Krzysztof, do you have a preference on how we should handle this?
