dt-bindings: iio: adc: adi,ad7124: fix clocks properties

Use correct clocks properties for the AD7124 family of ADCs.

These ADCs have an internal clock along with an optional external clock
that can be connected to the CLK pin. This pin can be wired up 3 ways:
1. Not connected - the internal clock is used.
2. Connected to an external clock (input) - the external clock is used.
3. Connected to the CLK pin on another ADC (output) - the internal clock
   is used on one and the other is configured for an external clock.

The new bindings describe these 3 cases by picking one of the following:
1. Omit both clocks and #clock-cells properties.
2. Include only the clocks property with a phandle to the external clock.
3. Include only the #clock-cells property on the ADC providing the output.

The clock-names property is now deprecated and should not be used. The
MCLK signal that it refers to is an internal counter in the ADC and
therefore does not make sense as a devicetree property as it can't be
connected to anything external to the ADC. Since there is only one
possible external clock, the clock-names property is not needed anyway.
Based on the implementation of the Linux driver, it looks like the
"mclk" clock was basically being used as a control to select the power
mode of the ADC, which is not something that should be done in the
devicetree.
