serial: ns16550: Support clocks via phandle

Previously ns16550 compatible UARTs probed via device tree have needed
their device tree nodes to contain a clock-frequency property. An
alternative to this commonly used with Linux is to reference a clock via
a phandle. This patch allows U-Boot to support that, retrieving the
clock frequency by probing the appropriate clock device.

For example, a system might choose to provide the UART base clock as a
reference to a clock common to multiple devices:

  sys_clk: clock {
    compatible = "fixed-clock";
    #clock-cells = <0>;
    clock-frequency = <10000000>;
  };

  uart0: uart@10000000 {
    compatible = "ns16550a";
    reg = <0x10000000 0x1000>;
    clocks = <&sys_clk>;
  };

  uart1: uart@10000000 {
    compatible = "ns16550a";
    reg = <0x10001000 0x1000>;
    clocks = <&sys_clk>;
  };

This removes the need for the frequency information to be duplicated in
multiple nodes and allows the device tree to be more descriptive of the
system.
