Add the new mediatek compatible strings. Change the compatible string on
the examples with the mediatek compatible strings.

Add the new compatible strings for mt7620, mt76x8, and rt305x to be able to
properly document the pin muxing information of each SoC, or SoCs that use
the same pinmux data.

Marketing/acquistion renames was just an example and common reason. That 
doesn't make other reasons okay. I don't see any reason given here.

If you want to break the ABI (do you??, because the commit message 
still doesn't say), then you don't need "ralink,mt7620-pinctrl".

I did give the reason on patch 2 and 9 but I should've put it on this 
patch as well.

I'm continuing the conversation regarding this under patch 9.

I don't want to break the ABI. But I deprecate ralink,mt7620-pinctrl on 
later patches. The driver still has it though, so old DTs will keep 
working. That keeps the ABI intact regardless of deprecating strings on 
the dt-binding schema, right?
