The text is very, very old and predates /dev/mediaX devices, so the
reference to "media device" is today very confusing.
It also says that the ioctl is not supported by the driver, but a
driver may have multiple device nodes, some support a given ioctl,
and some don't.
Simplify the description: ENOTTY means that the ioctl is not supported
by the file descriptor.

Since 2017, there is an space reserved for userspace API,
created by changeset 1d596dee38 ("docs: Create a user-space API guide").
As the media subsystem was one of the first subsystems to use
Sphinx, until this patch, we were keeping things on a separate
place.
Let's just use the new location, as having all uAPI altogether
will likely make things easier for developers.
