dt-bindings: mtd: convert "fixed-partitions" to the json-schema
This standardizes its documentation, allows validating with Makefile
checks and helps writing DTS files.
Noticeable changes:
1. Dropped "Partitions can be represented by sub-nodes of a flash
device." as we also support subpartitions (don't have to be part of
flash device node)
2. Dropped "to Linux" as bindings are meant to be os agnostic.
