Can't build fade-led example for any Nordic board

[ValentiWorkLearning]

Describe the bug
After generating ninja with CMake can't buld project for Nordic's devkits, such as:
cmake -GNinja -DBOARD=nrf52840_papyr ..

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. mkdir build; cd build
2. cmake -GNinja -DBOARD=nrf52840_papyr ..
3. ninja
4. See error

Expected behavior
It's possible to build the fade-led example. Maybe explanation for device-tree syntax need to be added to Zephyr.

Impact
What impact does this issue have on your progress (e.g., annoyance, showstopper)

(cut-and-paste text and put a code fence (```) before and after, to help
explain the issue.

Additional context
I tried to bulid the fade-led example for custom Nordic board and see this error about non-aliased pwe0 led controller. Later I found, that this example couldn't be built for any of Nordic's boards.

Changed from bug to question since this is likely just Device Tree. I leave it to @anangl to confirm.

[ValentiWorkLearning]

@carlescufi Thanks! Awaiting for answer.

[ValentiWorkLearning]

FYI: #19467

[anangl]

@carlescufi
Yes, this is a question of devicetree - Nordic boards lack definitions of pwmleds and the pwm-led0 alias that are required by the fade_led sample. But it is actually a bug because fade_led's README.rst still states that the sample should work on nrf52840_pca10056 "out of the box".
I think I'll manage to come soon (meaning: tomorrow) with a PR that will correct this for Nordic DK boards. And that PR could be a base for all users wanting to update definitions for any other board with a Nordic SoC.

[ValentiWorkLearning]

@anangl Where I can find detailed information about device-tree structure and how to use aliases/add new peripheral? Is this available in Zephyr docs?

[anangl]

@ValentiWorkLearning Look here: https://docs.zephyrproject.org/latest/guides/dts/index.html

[mron]

I downloaded anangl's changes ( using svn ) and tried them out with board=nrf52840_pca10056. It compiled without errors.

Thanks!
