Subject: V4L/DVB (12761): DocBook: add media API specs

The V4L and DVB API's are there for a long time. however, up to now,
no efforts were done to merge them to kernel DocBook.

This patch adds the current versions of the specs as an unique compendium.

+    <para>As the video/audio devices become more complicated it
+becomes harder to debug problems. When this ioctl is called the driver
+will output the current device status to the kernel log. This is
+particular useful when dealing with problems like no sound, no video
+and incorrectly tuned channels. Also many modern devices autodetect
+video and audio standards and this ioctl will report what the device
+thinks what the standard is. Mismatches may give an indication where
