The uartlite device is a "soft" device. Many parameters, such as baud
rate, data bits, and the presence of a parity bit are configured before
synthesis and may not be changed (or discovered) at runtime. However, we
must know what these settings are in order to properly calculate the
uart timeout (and to inform the user about the actual baud of the uart).

These properties are present for out-of-tree bindings generated by
Xilinx's tools. However, they are also (mostly) present in in-tree
bindings. I chose current-speed over xlnx,baudrate primarily because it
seemed to be used by more existing bindings.

I think all of these should be optional properties because were required
in past. Likely a lot of xilinx dt binding files have them but as it is
visible sh also has it without it.

As I understand it, the "required" here covers both properties which the
driver cannot function without and properties which should be set for all
new bindings. That is, the 'required" here is perscriptive. The worst
that happens is that the bindings author gets a warning when doing
dtbs_check, which is exactly what we want to happen.

In the driver itself, only "current-speed" is required. However, I could
make that optional as well (although perhaps with a warning). I feel
much less comfortable guessing the default baud rate than guessing 8n1.
