[PATCHv3 RESEND 10/10] ASoC: dt-bindings: fsl-asoc-card: add compatible for generic codec

Add documentation about new dts bindings following new support
for compatible "fsl,imx-audio-generic".

Some CPU DAI don't require a real audio codec. The new compatible
"fsl,imx-audio-generic" allows using the driver with codec drivers
SPDIF DIT and SPDIF DIR as dummy codecs.
It also allows using not pre-configured audio codecs which
don't require specific control through a codec driver.

The new dts properties give the possibility to set some parameters
about the CPU DAI usually set through the codec configuration.
