Add xyz.openbmc_project.Association.Definitions

Document the interface currently used by some OpenBMC projects that
enables applications to delegate association object lifetime management
to another application.

The behavior of how Associations work is described here:
https://github.com/openbmc/docs/blob/master/object-mapper.md#associations

This patch allows phosphor-dbus-interface-binding-using applications to
drop their local versions of this interface binding description e.g.
https://github.com/openbmc/phosphor-bmc-code-mgmt/blob/f5eaf39/org/openbmc/Associations.interface.yaml.
This is a good thing because carrying local versions of these interface
binding descriptions drives much complexity into the process of simply
building the application.
