The | isn't needed in this case. (It is only needed if we needed
to preserve formatting, or if there is a : in the text that would
be interpreted as a dict key.)

As the bot said, don't need $ref here because it is a standard unit.
(So don't forget to run `make dt_binding_check DT_SCHEMA_FILES=ads112c04`
before sending.)

This chip doesn't allow arbitrary combinations, so there
are actually only 12 possible single-channel + diff-channels
values. So maximum: 11 and channel@[0-9a-b] would make sense.

For this chip, we should also have excitation-channels, excitation-current-nanoamp,
and reference-sources.
