doc: Remove obsolete RCU update functions from RCU documentation
Now that synchronize_rcu_bh, synchronize_rcu_bh_expedited, call_rcu_bh, rcu_barrier_bh, synchronize_sched, synchronize_sched_expedited, call_rcu_sched, rcu_barrier_sched, get_state_synchronize_sched, and cond_synchronize_sched are obsolete, let's remove them from the documentation aside from a small historical section.
