dt-bindings: remoteproc: Document AMD MicroBlaze/V BRAM-based rproc

Describe an AMD MicroBlaze/V BRAM-based remote processor controlled through the remoteproc framework. The binding models a soft-core processor subsystem instantiated in AMD programmable logic and using dual-port BRAM for firmware storage and execution. The remoteproc device is represented as a child node whose reg property describes the firmware memory window in the processor-local address space. The parent bus node provides standard devicetree address translation through ranges so Linux can access the same BRAM through the system physical address space. A clock input feeds the soft-core processor subsystem, and an active-low reset GPIO holds the processor in reset until firmware loading completes. The firmware-name property is optional.

+  Memory Architecture:
+
+    The dual-port BRAM allows simultaneous access from both processors:
+      - Port A: Connected to the host AXI BRAM controller for firmware loading
+      - Port B: Connected to the soft-core local memory bus for execution
+
+  The reg property describes the executable BRAM window in the processor-local
+  address space. The parent bus node translates that window to the system
+  physical address space by using standard devicetree address translation
+  through ranges. A clock input and a reset GPIO control the subsystem.
