doc: FIT image: fix incorrect description of DT node unit address

The DT spec demands a unit-address in a node name to match the "reg"
property in that node. Newer dtc versions will throw warnings if this is
not the case.
Fix all occurences in the FIT image documentation files where this was not
observed, to not give bad examples to the reader.

This gives us a bit of a look into the signature that mkimage added. Note you
can also use fdtdump to list the entire device tree.
Say we want to change the kernel that this configuration uses
(/images/kernel@1). We could just put a new kernel in the image, but we will
(/images/kernel). We could just put a new kernel in the image, but we will
need to change the hash to match. Let's simulate that by changing a byte of
the hash:
fdtget -tx image.fit /images/kernel@1/hash@1 value
fdtget -tx image.fit /images/kernel/hash-1 value

You can see that we have added hashes for all images (since they are no
longer signed), and a signature to each configuration. In the above example,
mkimage will sign configurations/conf@1, the kernel and fdt that are
pointed to by the configuration (/images/kernel@1, /images/kernel@1/hash@1,
/images/fdt@1, /images/fdt@1/hash@1) and the root structure of the image
mkimage will sign configurations/conf-1, the kernel and fdt that are
pointed to by the configuration (/images/kernel-1, /images/kernel-1/hash-1,
/images/fdt-1, /images/fdt-1/hash-1) and the root structure of the image
(so that it isn't possible to add or remove root nodes). The signature is
written into /configurations/conf@1/signature@1/value. It can easily be
written into /configurations/conf-1/signature-1/value. It can easily be
verified later even if the FIT has been signed with other keys in the
meantime.
