dt-bindings: simplefb: Specify node location and handoff related properties

Since simplefb nodes do not relate directly to hw typically they have been
placed in the root of the devicetree. As the represent runtime information
having them as sub-nodes of /chosen is more logical, specify this.

Also specify when to set the chosen stdout-path property to a simplefb node.

For reliable handover to a hardware specific driver, that driver needs to
know which simplefb to unregister when taking over, specify how the hw driver
can find the matching simplefb node.

Last add some advice on how to fill and use simplefb nodes from a firmware
pov.

 the bootloader, with the assumption that the display hardware has already
 been set up to scan out from the memory pointed to by the reg property.
 
+Since simplefb nodes represent runtime information they must be sub-nodes of
+the chosen node (*). Simplefb nodes must be named "framebuffer@<address>".
+
+If the devicetree contains nodes for the display hardware used by a simplefb,
+then the simplefb node must contain a property called "display", which
+contains a phandle pointing to the primary display hw node, so that the OS
+knows which simplefb to disable when handing over control to a driver for the
+real hardware. The bindings for the hw nodes must specify which node is
+considered the primary node.
+
+It is advised to add display# aliases to help the OS determine how to number
+things. If display# aliases are used, then if the simplefb node contains a
+"display" property then the /aliases/display# path must point to the display
+hw node the "display" property points to, otherwise it must point directly
+to the simplefb node.
+
+If a simplefb node represents the preferred console for user interaction,
+then the chosen node's stdout-path property should point to it, or to the
+primary display hw node, as with display# aliases. If display aliases are
+used then it should be set to the alias instead.
+
+It is advised that devicetree files contain pre-filled, disabled framebuffer
+nodes, so that the firmware only needs to update the mode information and
+enable them. This way if e.g. later on support for more display clocks get
+added, the simplefb nodes will already contain this info and the firmware
+does not need to be updated.
+
+If pre-filled framebuffer nodes are used, they should be named
+"framebuffer#-<output>", e.g. "framebuffer0-hdmi". The output should be
+included in the name since different outputs typically require different
+clocks and the clocks are part of the pre-populated nodes. The firmware must
+rename the nodes to the standard "framebuffer@<address>" name using the
+runtime chosen address when enabling the nodes.
