dt-bindings: iio: afe: add bindings for temperature-sense-rtd

An ADC is often used to measure other quantities indirectly. This
binding describe one case, the measurement of a temperature through the
voltage across an RTD resistor such as a PT1000.

RTDs (Resistance Temperature Detectors) are a kind of temperature sensors
used to get a linear voltage to temperature reading within a give range
(usually 0 to 100 degrees Celsius).
When an io-channel measures the output voltage across an RTD such as a
PT1000, the interesting measurement is almost always the corresponding
temperature, not the voltage output. This binding describes such a circuit.
The general transfer function here is (using SI units)
V = R(T) * iexc
R(T) = r0 * (1 + alpha * T)
T = 1 / (alpha * r0 * iexc) * (V - r0 * iexc)
The following circuit matches what's in the examples section.

alpha can also be expressed in micro-ohms per ohm Celsius. It's a linear
approximation of the resistance versus temperature relationship
between 0 and 100 degrees Celsius.
alpha = (R_100 - R_0) / (100 * R_0)
Where, R_100 is the resistance of the sensor at 100 degrees Celsius, and
R_0 (or r-naught-ohms) is the resistance of the sensor at 0 degrees
Celsius.
Pure platinum has an alpha of 3925. Industry standards such as IEC60751
and ASTM E-1137 specify an alpha of 3850.
r-naught-ohms:

Resistance of the sensor at 0 degrees Celsius.
Common values are 100 for PT100, 500 for PT500, and 1000 for PT1000
