Subject: [PATCH] dt-bindings: riscv: correct starfive visionfive 2 compatibles

Using "va" and "vb" doesn't match what's written on the board, or the
communications from StarFive.
Switching to using the silkscreened version number will ease confusion &
the risk of another spin of the board containing a "conflicting" version
identifier.
