[media] doc-rst: Fix conversion for MC core functions
There were lots of issues at the media controller side,
after the conversion:
- Some documentation at the header files weren't using the
kernel-doc start block;
- Now, the C files with the exported symbols also need to be
added. So, all headers need to be included twice: one to
get the structs/enums/.. and another one for the functions;
- Notes should use the ReST tag, as kernel-doc doesn't
recognizes it anymore;
- Identation needs to be fixed, as ReST uses it to identify
when a format "tag" ends.
- Fix the cross-references at the media controller description.

Drivers might also need to iterate over all entities in a graph that can be

Drivers initiate a graph traversal by calling
-media_entity_graph_walk_start()

The graph structure, provided by the caller, is initialized to start graph

prevent link states from being modified during streaming by calling

The function will mark all entities connected to the given entity through
enabled links, either directly or indirectly, as streaming.
