drm/DocBook: Add more drm_bridge documentation

Add DOC sections giving an overview of drm_bridge and how to fill up the
drm_bridge_funcs ops. Add these to drm.tpml in DocBook.

Add headerdocs for funcs in drm_bridge.c that don't have them yet.

/**
* DOC: overview
*
* drm_bridge represents a device that hangs on to an encoder. These are handy
* when a regular drm_encoder entity isn't enough to represent the entire
* encoder chain.
*
* A bridge is always associated to a single drm_encoder at a time, but can be
* either connected to it directly, or through an intermediate bridge:
*
* encoder ---> bridge B ---> bridge A
*
* Here, the output of the encoder feeds to bridge B, and that furthers feeds to
* bridge A.
*
* The driver using the bridge is responsible to make the associations between
* the encoder and bridges. Once these links are made, the bridges will
* participate along with encoder functions to perform mode_set/enable/disable
* through the ops provided in drm_bridge_funcs.
*
* drm_bridge, like drm_panel, aren't drm_mode_object entities like planes,
* crtcs, encoders or connectors. They just provide additional hooks to get the
* desired output at the end of the encoder chain.

/**
* DOC: bridge callbacks
*
* The drm_bridge_funcs ops are populated by the bridge driver. The drm
* internals(atomic and crtc helpers) use the helpers defined in drm_bridge.c
* These helpers call a specific drm_bridge_funcs op for all the bridges
* during encoder configuration.
*
* When creating a bridge driver, one can implement drm_bridge_funcs op with
* the help of these rough rules:
*
* pre_enable: this contains things needed to be done for the bridge before
* its clock and timings are enabled by its source. For a bridge, its source
* is generally the encoder or bridge just before it in the encoder chain.
*
* enable: this contains things needed to be done for the bridge once its
* source is enabled. In other words, enable is called once the source is
* ready with clock and timing needed by the bridge.
*
* disable: this contains things needed to be done for the bridge assuming
* that its source is still enabled, i.e. clock and timings are still on.
*
* post_disable: this contains things needed to be done for the bridge once
* its source is disabled, i.e. once clocks and timings are off.
*
* mode_fixup: this should fixup the given mode for the bridge. It is called
* after the encoder's mode fixup. mode_fixup can also reject a mode completely
* if it's unsuitable for the hardware.
*
* mode_set: this sets up the mode for the bridge. It assumes that its source
* (an encoder or a bridge) has set the mode too.
