media: Documentation: vivid.rst: fix confusing section refs

The documentation contained several instances of "section X"
references, which no longer map to whatever X was.

Replace these by the section titles.

Also fix a single confusing typo in the "Radio & RDS Looping" section:
"are regular frequency intervals" -> "at regular frequency intervals"

Radio & RDS Looping
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As mentioned in section 6 the radio receiver emulates stations are regular
frequency intervals. Depending on the frequency of the radio receiver a
signal strength value is calculated (this is returned by VIDIOC_G_TUNER).
However, it will also look at the frequency set by the radio transmitter and
if that results in a higher signal strength than the settings of the radio
transmitter will be used as if it was a valid station. This also includes
the RDS data (if any) that the transmitter 'transmits'. This is received
faithfully on the receiver side. Note that when the driver is loaded the
frequencies of the radio receiver and transmitter are not identical, so

the frequencies of the radio receiver and transmitter are not identical, so
initially no looping takes place.
