ACPI: Drop unused ACPI_*_COMPONENT definitions and update documentation

Drop the definitions of the following symbols:

 ACPI_SBS_COMPONENT
 ACPI_FAN_COMPONENT
 ACPI_CONTAINER_COMPONENT
 ACPI_MEMORY_DEVICE_COMPONENT

that are not used in a meaningful way any more and update the ACPI
debug documentation to avoid confusing users by making the impression
that the ACPICA debug can be used for anything other than ACPICA
itself, which is incorrect.

No functional impact.

The ACPI CA, the Linux ACPI core, and some ACPI drivers can generate debug
output. This document describes how to use this facility.

You can set the debug_layer mask at boot-time using the acpi.debug_layer

The possible components are defined in include/acpi/acoutput.h and
