[PATCH v3 1/2] schemas: Add a schema for memory map

[Simon Glass]

The Devicetree specification skips over handling of a logical view of
the memory map, pointing users to the UEFI specification.

It is common to split firmware into 'Platform Init', which does the
initial hardware setup and a "Payload" which selects the OS to be booted.
Thus an handover interface is required between these two pieces.

Where UEFI boot-time services are not available, but UEFI firmware is
present on either side of this interface, information about memory usage
and attributes must be presented to the "Payload" in some form.

This aims to provide an initial schema for this mapping.

Note that this is separate from the existing /memory and /reserved-memory
nodes, since it is mostly concerned with what the memory is used for. It
may cover only a small fraction of available memory.

For now, no attempt is made to create an exhaustive binding, so there are
some example types listed. This can be completed once this has passed
initial review.

This binding does not include a binding for the memory 'attribute'
property, defined by EFI_BOOT_SERVICES.GetMemoryMap(). It may be useful
to have that as well, but perhaps not as a bit mask.
