Add the string property "xt-frequency" to control xtal calibration of the
RTC. This allows to improve the RTC accuracy using a Distributed Digital
Calibration function. See: ch. 5.9.1 of
AB08XX Series Ultra Low Power RTC IC User's Guide

+The RTCs support XT calibration that allows to improve the RTC accuracy.

+       Measure the square wave frequency on the output pin in milliHerz.
