Documentation: EM: Describe new registration method using DT

Browse Source 
The new registration method allows to get power values from the DT OPP
definition. The new OPP entry property "opp-microwatt" contains total
power expressed in micro-Watts. Align the EM documentation with this
new possible registration method of EM.

Registration of EM using DT
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The EM can also be registered using OPP framework and information in DT
"operating-points-v2". Each OPP entry in DT can be extended with a property
"opp-microwatt" containing micro-Watts power value. This OPP DT property
allows a platform to register EM power values which are reflecting total power
(static + dynamic). These power values might be coming directly from
experiments and measurements.
