Document the fact that the trigger signal is now optional, and describe
the behavior when this is used.

While at it, fix a typo, and paraphrase a sentence to be less platform
specific.

 Binding for the LTC2952 PowerPath controller
 
 This chip is used to externally trigger a system shut down. Once the trigger

+A full powerdown can be triggered via the kill signal.
 
 Required properties:
