watchdog: imx7ulp_wdt: Keep WDOG running until A55 enters WFI on i.MX94

On i.MX94, watchdog sources clock from bus clock that will be always on
during the lifecycle of Linux. There is a Low Power Clock Gating(LPCG)
between the bus clock and watchdog, but the LPCG is not exported for
software to control, it is hardware automatically controlled. When
Cortex-A55 executes WFI during suspend flow, the LPCG will automatically
gate off the clock to stop watchdog and resume clock when Cortex-A55 is
woke up.

So watchdog could always be alive to protect Linux, except Cortex-A
platform WFI is executed in Linux suspend flow.

Introduce a new hardware feature flag to indicate CPU low-power-mode
auto clock gating support, and use it to avoid stopping the watchdog
during suspend when LPCG can safely keep it running.

Add i.MX94-specific watchdog hardware data and DT compatible entry to
enable this behavior.
