software node: implement reference properties

It is possible to store references to software nodes in the same fashion as
other static properties, so that users do not need to define separate
structures:

static const struct software_node gpio_bank_b_node = {
	.name = "B",
};

static const struct property_entry simone_key_enter_props[] = {
	PROPERTY_ENTRY_U32("linux,code", KEY_ENTER),
	PROPERTY_ENTRY_STRING("label", "enter"),
	PROPERTY_ENTRY_REF("gpios", &gpio_bank_b_node, 123, GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW),
	{ }
};
