docs: dt-bindings: Document preferred line wrapping



There are some patches with long lines as a result of checkpatch
enforcing 100, not 80, but checkpatch is only a tool not a coding style.
The Linux Kernel Coding Style is still clear here on preferred limit.
Mentioned preferred style of wrapping long lines in DTS, based on Linux
Kernel Coding Style.

2. Each entry in arrays with multiple cells, e.g. "reg" with two IO addresses,
   shall be enclosed in <>.
3. For arrays spanning across lines, it is preferred to align the continued
   entries with opening < from the first line.

   Usually avoid splitting individual items unless they significantly exceed
