Documentation: Update IRQ-domain.txt to document irq_domain_mapping

irq_domain_mapping is a rather useful tool to understand how IRqs
are mapped in irqdomains, and yet it is not documented anywhere.
Let's address this.

=== Debugging ===
If you switch on CONFIG_IRQ_DOMAIN_DEBUG (which depends on
CONFIG_IRQ_DOMAIN and CONFIG_DEBUG_FS), you will find a new file in
your debugfs mount point, called irq_domain_mapping. This file
contains a live snapshot of all the IRQ domains in the system:
name mapped linear-max direct-max devtree-node
pl061 8 8 0 /smb/gpio@e0080000
pl061 8 8 0 /smb/gpio@e1050000
pMSI 0 0 0 /interrupt-controller@e1101000/v2m@e0080000
MSI 37 0 0 /interrupt-controller@e1101000/v2m@e0080000
GICv2m 37 0 0 /interrupt-controller@e1101000/v2m@e0080000
GICv2 448 448 0 /interrupt-controller@e1101000
it also iterates over the interrupts to display their mapping in the
domains, and makes the domain stacking visible:
irq hwirq chip name chip data active type domain
1 0x00019 GICv2 0xffff00000916bfd8 * LINEAR GICv2
2 0x0001d GICv2 0xffff00000916bfd8 LINEAR GICv2

Here, interrupts 1-5 are only using a single domain, while 96 and 97
are build out of a stack of three domain, each level performing a
particular function.
