dt-bindings: i2c: add support for 'i2c-arb' subnode

This gets rid of the need for a pointless 'reg' property for i2c
arbitrators.

I.e. this new and more compact style

	some-arbitrator {
		i2c-arb {
			#address-cells = <1>;
			#size-cells = <0>;

			some-i2c-device@50 {
				reg = <0x50>;
			};
		};
	};

instead of the old

	some-arbitrator {
		#address-cells = <1>;
		#size-cells = <0>;

		i2c@0 {
			reg = <0>;

			#address-cells = <1>;
			#size-cells = <0>;

			some-i2c-device@50 {
				reg = <0x50>;
			};
		};
	};
