media: dt-bindings/media/cec-gpio.txt: mention the CEC/HPD max voltages
Mention the maximum voltages of the CEC and HPD lines. Since in the example these lines are connected to a Raspberry Pi and the Rpi GPIO lines are 3.3V it is a good idea to warn against directly connecting the HPD to the Raspberry Pi's GPIO line.
