While most devices within power-domains which support performance states,
scale the performance state dynamically, some devices might want to
set a static/default performance state while the device is active.
These devices typically would also run off a fixed clock and not support
dynamically scaling the device's performance, also known as DVFS techniques.
Add a property 'assigned-performance-states' which client devices can
use to set this default performance state on their power-domains.

Why is this named assigned and not "default"? Just curious :)

I took the cue from assigned-clock-rates/assigned-clock-parents but i am perfectly
fine calling it default-performance-states as well :)
