Documentation: dt: Add binding for /secure-chosen/stdout-path

Some platforms may use a single device tree to describe two address
spaces, as described in d9f43babb9 ("Documentation: dt: Add bindings
for Secure-only devices"). For these platforms it makes sense to define
a secure counterpart of /chosen, namely: /secure-chosen. This new node
is meant to be used by the secure firmware to pass data to the secure
OS. Only the stdout-path property is supported for now.

The secure-chosen node
----------------------
Similar to the /chosen node which serves as a place for passing data
between firmware and the operating system, the /secure-chosen node may
be used to pass data to the Secure OS. Only the properties defined
below may appear in the /secure-chosen node.
- stdout-path : specifies the device to be used by the Secure OS for
its console output. The syntax is the same as for /chosen/stdout-path.
If the /secure-chosen node exists but the stdout-path property is not
present, the Secure OS should not perform any console output. If
/secure-chosen does not exist, the Secure OS should use the value of
/chosen/stdout-path instead (that is, use the same device as the
Normal world OS).
