dt-bindings: riscv: Add B ISA extension description
Add description of the single-letter B extension for Bit Manipulation. B is mandatory for RVA23U64. The B extension is ratified in the 20240411 version of the unprivileged ISA specification. According to the ratified spec, the B standard extension comprises instructions provided by the Zba, Zbb, and Zbs extensions. Add two-way dependency check to enforce that B implies Zba/Zbb/Zbs; and when Zba/Zbb/Zbs (all of them) are specified, then B must be added too. The reason why B/Zba/Zbb/Zbs must coexist at the same time is that unlike other single-letter extensions, B was ratified (Apr/2024) much later than its component extensions Zba/Zbb/Zbs (Jun/2021). When "b" is specified, zba/zbb/zbs must be present to ensure backward compatibility with existing software and kernels that only look for the explicit component strings. When all three components zba/zbb/zbs are specified, "b" should also be present. Making "b" mandatory when all three components are present. Existing devicetrees with zba/zbb/zbs but without "b" will generate warnings that can be fixed in follow-up patches.
