[media] doc-rst: document LIRC set carrier ioctls
Put each ioctl on its own page and improve documentation, adding cross-references for LIRC_SET_REC_CARRIER_RANGE and LIRC_SET_REC_CARRIER, with can be used together to set a carrier frequency range. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>

+********************************
+
+Name
+====
+
+LIRC_SET_REC_CARRIER_RANGE - Set lower bond of the carrier used to modulate
+IR receive.
+
+Synopsis
+========
+
+.. cpp:function:: int ioctl( int fd, int request, __u32 *frequency )
+
+Arguments
+=========
+
+``fd``
+ File descriptor returned by open().
+
+``request``
+ LIRC_SET_REC_CARRIER_RANGE
+
+``frequency``
+ Frequency of the carrier that modulates PWM data, in Hz.
+
+Description
+===========
+
+This ioctl sets the upper range of carrier frequency that will be recognized
+by the IR receiver.
+
+.. note::
+
+ To set a range use :ref:`LIRC_SET_REC_CARRIER_RANGE
+ <LIRC_SET_REC_CARRIER_RANGE>` with the lower bound first and later call
+ :ref:`LIRC_SET_REC_CARRIER <LIRC_SET_REC_CARRIER>` with the upper bound.
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
+appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
+:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
