dt-bindings: mtd: jedec, spi-nor: Add DT property to avoid setting SRWD bit in status register

If the WP# signal of the flash device is either not connected or is wrongly
tied to GND (that includes internal pull-downs), and the software sets the
status register write disable (SRWD) bit in the status register then the
status register permanently becomes read-only. To avoid this added a new
boolean DT property "no-wp". If this property is set in the DT then the
software avoids setting the SRWD during status register write operation.

+    description:
+      The status register write disable (SRWD) bit in status register, combined
+      with the WP# signal, provides hardware data protection for the device. When
+      the SRWD bit is set to 1, and the WP# signal is either driven LOW or hard
+      strapped to LOW, the status register nonvolatile bits become read-only and
+      the WRITE STATUS REGISTER operation will not execute. The only way to exit
+      this hardware-protected mode is to drive WP# HIGH. If the WP# signal of the
+      flash device is not connected or is wrongly tied to GND (that includes internal
+      pull-downs) then status register permanently becomes read-only as the SRWD bit
+      cannot be reset. This boolean flag can be used on such systems to avoid setting
+      the SRWD bit while writing the status register. WP# signal hard strapped to GND
+      can be a valid use case.
