Documentation: Move common leds properties description to separate file.
There are several drivers that use LEDs and depend on exactly the same device tree binding. However, the binding documentation has simply been cut-and-paste into each of the binding documents. Rather than continue to duplicate it, this patch adds a common led binding document that all can reference.
