Documentation/gpu: add dedicated documentation for Intel display Nowadays, the display support for drm/i915 and drm/xe is shared between the drivers, even though the code is located under drm/i915/display. The drm/i915 documentation has everything, including display topics, in one huge page, while the drm/xe documentation is well-organized but hardly mentions display. It's not great, to put it mildly. Split out the Intel display documentation to a dedicated directory, Documentation/gpu/intel-display. Also directly split the functionality/feature documentation to dedicated pages to keep the main index page high level and readable. We'll want to organize this further, but just sort them alphabetically for starters. Drop the boilerplate documentation sections that don't actually document anything. Cross-reference drm/i915, drm/xe, and intel-display.

Documentation/gpu: use === for Intel display section heading underlines Prefer to use === instead of --- for top level section heading underlines to allow using the latter for sub-headings later. While at it, fix the underline lenghts where needed.
