dvdd-supply and vsup-supply are optional HX711 properties and
arenot present on all boards (e.g. DVDD tied to AVDD or use of the
on-chip regulator without a separate supply node).
The example shows a minimal working configuration.

I will remove the example for HX710B.

Thanks for the review.

I'll fix the schema issues you pointed out in v3
Will share v3 shortly
