U-Boot doesn't have cells at hardcoded addresses. They are stored in
internal format. It's still important to define relevant cells in DT so
NVMEM consumers can reference them.
Update binding to allow including basic cells as NVMEM device subnodes.

U-Boot uses environment variables for storing device setup data. It
usually needs to be accessed by a bootloader, kernel and often
user-space.
This binding allows describing environment data located in a raw flash
partition. It's treated as NVMEM device and can be reused later for
other storage devices.
Using DT should be cleaner than hardcoding & duplicating such info in
multiple places. Bootloader & kernel can share DTS and user-space can
try reading it too or just have correct data exposed by a kernel.
A custom "compatible" string allows system to automatically load
relevant NVMEM driver but phandle can be also used for reading raw
location.
