[PATCH v3 1/2] dt-bindings: mipi-dsi: Add info about peripherals with non-DSI control bus

Add a section that describes dt-bindings for peripherals that support
MIPI DSI, but have a different bus as the primary control bus, or no
control bus at all. Add an example for a peripheral with a non-DSI
control bus.

+
+There are peripherals that have I2C/SPI (or some other non-DSI bus) as the
+primary control bus, but are also connected to a DSI bus (mostly for the data
+path). Connections between such peripherals and a DSI host can be represented
+using the graph bindings [1], [2].
