OF: add fsl,mcu-mpc8349emitx to the exception list

of/base.c matches on the first (most specific) entries, which isn't
quite practical but it was discussed[1] that this won't change.

The bindings specifies verbose information for the devices, but
it doesn't fit in the I2C ID's 20 characters limit. The limit won't
change[2], and the bindings won't change either as they're correct.

So we have to put an exception for the MPC8349E-mITX-compatible
MCUs.
