dt-bindings: sound: fsl,qmc-audio: Add support for multiple QMC channels per DAI

The QMC audio uses one QMC channel per DAI and uses this QMC channel to
transmit interleaved audio channel samples.

In order to work in non-interleave mode, a QMC audio DAI needs to use
multiple QMC channels. In that case, the DAI maps each QMC channel to
exactly one audio channel.

Allow QMC audio DAIs with multiple QMC channels attached.

   The QMC audio is an ASoC component which uses QMC (QUICC Multichannel
   Controller) channels to transfer the audio data.
-  It provides as many DAI as the number of QMC channel used.
+  It provides several DAIs. For each DAI, the DAI is working in interleaved mode
+  if only one QMC channel is used by the DAI or it is working in non-interleaved
+  mode if several QMC channels are used by the DAI.
