mtd: augment the "arm,versatile-flash" bindings

The bindings for the "arm,versatile-flash" device was merged in
commit 3ba7222a
"arm/versatile: Add device tree support" but was never used
for anything.

Versatile flash chips are actually just standard CFI chips,
but they have one or two bits in a system controller to control
VPP and write protection. Let's use this compatible string in
conjunction with "cfi-flash" to indicate that we have a
normal CFI flash with some extra Versatile-specific protection.

These flash chips are found in the ARM reference designs like Integrator,
Versatile, RealView, Versatile Express etc.
They are regular CFI compatible (Intel or AMD extended) flash chips with
some special write protect/VPP bits that can be controlled by the machine's
system controller.
