dt-bindings: Add an enable method to RISC-V



RISC-V doesn't currently specify a mechanism for enabling or disabling
CPUs.  Instead, we assume that all CPUs are enabled on boot, and if
someone wants to save power we instead put a CPU to sleep via a WFI
loop.  Future systems may have an explicit mechanism for putting a CPU
to sleep, so we're standardizing the device tree entry for when that
happens.

We're not defining a spin-table based interface to the firmware, as the
plan is to handle this entirely within the kernel instead.
