Official Documentation say "Surface Laptop, 13.8 inch (8th Edition)"

We have to create a dedicated board file for the fifteen inch variant
since it is expected to have a sd-card port and another one for 13inch
specifically to enable ufs. All of them will have only lcd panels. So
how about if we go with the following?

microsoft,surface-laptop-8-lcd13
microsoft,surface-laptop-8-lcd13p8
microsoft,surface-laptop-8-lcd15

With this is mind it might make sense to create a common
file mahua-microsoft-surface-laptop-8.dtsi that all these
boards can import from as well.
