nvmem: Remove unused nvmem cell table support
Board files are deprecated by DT, and the last user of
nvmem_add_cell_table() was removed by commit 2af4fcc0d3574482 ("ARM:
davinci: remove unused board support") in v6.3. Hence remove all
support for nvmem cell tables, and update the documentation.
Device drivers can still register a single cell using
nvmem_add_one_cell() (which was not documented before).
