Chrome OS devices with discrete power delivery controllers (PDCs) allow
the host to read port status and control port behavior through a USB
Type-C Connector System Software (UCSI) interface with the embedded
controller (EC). This uses a separate interface driver than other
Chrome OS devices with a Type-C port manager in the EC FW. Those use
a host command interface supported by cros-ec-typec. Add a cros-ec-ucsi
compatibility string to the existing cros-ec-typec binding.
Additionally, update maintainer list to reflect cros-ec-ucsi and
cros-ec-typec driver maintainers.
