Hardware containers can just decouple external resources like clock
without any more control. Nexus nodes already exist for PWM and GPIOs,
add a binding to allow them for clocks as well.
No examples are given, the file is litteraly a copy-paste from Hervé
Codina's work on PWM Nexus nodes, hence we just point to the examples
there which already illustrate very clearly the concept of the various
properties.

+description: >
+ A nexus node allows to remap a phandle list in a consumer node through a
+ container or a connector node in a generic way. With this remapping,
+ the consumer node needs to know only about the nexus node. Resources
+ behind the nexus node are decoupled by the nexus node itself.
