serial: max310x: Use level-triggered interrupts

I was getting this trace along with a disabled IRQ when I was generating
heavy traffic over four daisy-chained UARTs (MAX14830) on my test kit
(Marvell Armada AM388, Solidrun Clearfog Base):

    Disabling IRQ #51

On a multi-UART max310x, each UART has its own interrupt status register
which automatically de-asserts the IRQ line upon read. (There are also
top-level IRQ indicator registers which are not clear-on-read, but they
are not relevant here.) It was quite possible to receive a pending IRQ
for, e.g., UART0, enter the threaded IRQ handler, clear the ISR for
UART0 which de-asserts the IRQ line, and then race with another event on
the same chip, but a different UART channel. That resulted in another
edge on the shared-within-the-chip IRQ line which got intercepted by the
kernel.

That all led to an edge-level interrupt which was not being handled by
anybody because our threaded handler hasn't finished yet. As the chip
actually uses *level* triggered IRQs, let's convert the example DT
bindings to these.
