Add i.MX8MP PGC nodes for vpu, which are used to supply power for VPU.

This change causes new error messages to come out during boot, for
example:

...

imx-pgc imx-pgc-domain.8: failed to command PGC

They don't seem to cause any problems on the hardware I am using, well, at
least not that I have found so far.

This first appeared for me in linux-6.1. But it is the same in todays linux 6.3-
rc4. Reverting this change (not completely trivial due to a couple of commits
after it that rely on it) fixes it - no more errors.

The VPU BLK CTRL seems not enabled.

How to enable it?
I have the blk-ctrl config options enabled:

#
# i.MX SoC drivers
#
CONFIG_IMX_GPCV2_PM_DOMAINS=y
CONFIG_SOC_IMX8M=y
CONFIG_SOC_IMX9=y
CONFIG_IMX8M_BLK_CTRL=y
CONFIG_IMX9_BLK_CTRL=y
# end of i.MX SoC drivers

Running with the full arm64 defconfig and using the imx8mp-evk.dtb still
outputs these messages:

[ 18.150679] imx-pgc imx-pgc-domain.8: failed to command PGC
[ 18.159241] imx-pgc imx-pgc-domain.8: failed to command PGC
[ 18.167822] imx-pgc imx-pgc-domain.8: failed to command PGC

Or do you mean something more fundamental, like the hardware block not
being enabled by boot loader? (Something to keep in mind is that the
platform I am using has no video output, only serial console).
