drm/docs: Small cleanup in drm-uapi.rst
- Remove the outdated hunk about driver documentation which somehow got misplaced here in the split-up. - Collect all the testing&validation stuff together and give the CRC section a heading for prettier output.

-This second part of the GPU Driver Developer's Guide documents driver
