[Frank Rowand]

From: Frank Rowand <frank.rowand-mEdOJwZ7QcZBDgjK7y7TUQ@public.gmane.org>

Add items to Devicetree Source Format chapter

- Add naming convention for DTS files and DTS include files
- Add /include/ compiler directive
- Add ";" to end of node definition
- Add /delete-node/ and /delete-property/
- Add arithmetic, bitwise, logical, and ternary expressions

Note that cpp directives are not included in this patch, and
are not yet specified in this appendix.

changes in v3
  - moved relational operators out of logical operators list into a
    relational operators list

changes in v2
  - arithmetic operators "and", "or" were incorrectly listed as as bitwise
  - thus bitwise operators "and", "or" were incorrectly shown
  - "exclusive or" operator added
  - logical and arithmetic "not" operators added
  - ternary operator added
  - moved shift operators from arithmetic to bitwise
