dt-bindings: battery: Voltage drop properties

ROHM has developed a so called "zero-correction" -algorithm to improve
the fuel-gauging accuracy close to the point where battery is depleted.
This relies on battery specific "VDR" (voltage drop rate) tables, which
are measured from the battery, and which describe the voltage drop rate.
More thorough explanation about the "zero correction" and "VDR"
parameters is here:

Document the VDR zero-correction specific battery properties used by the
BD71815BD71828BD72720 and some other ROHM chargers. (Note, charger
drivers aren't upstream yet).
