[PATCH] dt-bindings: net: add nvmem-consumer reference to network-class

[Rosen Penev]

The nvmem-cells and nvmem-cell-names properties are used to supply MAC
addresses to both wired and wireless network controllers. The wired
hierarchy already allows them through ethernet-controller.yaml, but the
wireless hierarchy (wireless-controller.yaml -> network-class.yaml)
does not. As a result, brcm,bcm4329-fmac nodes using nvmem (e.g.
bcm4709-linksys-ea9200.dts) failed dtbs_check with:

    Unevaluated properties are not allowed ('nvmem-cell-names',
    'nvmem-cells' were unexpected)

Each wireless driver otherwise has to add the nvmem-consumer reference
individually (qca,ath9k and mediatek,mt76 already declare their own
nvmem-cells/nvmem-cell-names).

Add the nvmem-consumer reference to network-class.yaml so all network
nodes inherit the properties at once. Wired controllers keep the tighter
single-cell, mac-address-only constraints via ethernet-controller.yaml,
which still apply alongside the relaxed class-level properties.
