drm: Update TTM initialization documentation

ttm_global_reference was renamed to drm_global_reference.  This updates
the documentation to reflect that.  While we are there, document the
drm_global_reference API and update the initialization interface
documentation.

for initializing the TTM, allocating and freeing memory, waiting for
command completion and fence synchronization, and memory migration. See
the radeon_ttm.c file for an example of usage.
