[PATCH] Documentation: gpu: Mention the requirements for new properties

[Maxime Ripard <maxime@cerno.tech>]

New KMS properties come with a bunch of requirements to avoid each
driver from running their own, inconsistent, set of properties,
eventually leading to issues like property conflicts, inconsistencies
between drivers and semantics, etc.

Let's document what we expect.

+Requirements
+------------
+
+KMS drivers might need to add extra properties to support new features.
+Each new property introduced in a driver need to meet a few
+requirements, in addition to the one mentioned above.:
+
+- It must be standardized, with some documentation to describe the
+  property can be used.
+
+- It must provide a generic helper in the core code to register that
+  property on the object it attaches to.
+
+- Its content must be decoded by the core and provided in the object
+  associated state structure.
+
+- An IGT test must be submitted.
