clk: max77686: Improve Maxim 77686 PMIC clocks binding
Like most clock drivers, the Maxim 77686 PMIC clock binding follows the convention that the "#clock-cells" property is used to specify the number of cells in a clock provider. But the binding document is not clear enough that it shall be set to 1 since the PMIC support multiple clocks outputs. Also, explain that the clocks identifiers are defined in a header file that can be included by Device Tree source with client nodes to avoid using magic numbers. Finally, add "clock-output-names" as an optional property since now is supported by the clock driver.

+Each clock is assigned an identifier and client nodes can use this identifier

+Clocks are defined as preprocessor macros in dt-bindings/clock/maxim,max77686.h
