user-space should be able to hint vb2 that either non-coherent
(if supported) or coherent memory should be used for the buffer
allocation.

There are lots of tables that are not properly displayed
in LaTeX/PDF.
Fix the tablecolumns, add longtable where needed and LaTeX
formatting macros, in order to address such issues.

Sphinx/LaTeX doesn't work well with literal blocks.
Due to that, V4L2_BUF_FLAG_M2M_HOLD_CAPTURE_BUF ends
being writing outside the table (and even outside the page).
We need to not only change the table size and font size, but
also to change the message, in order to avoid this bug.
So, improve the text a little bit, while ensuring that the
literal will be written at the beginning of the second line.

Changeset 129134e541 ("media: media/v4l2: remove V4L2_FLAG_MEMORY_NON_CONSISTENT flag")
reverted an uAPI flag, but it kept some left-overs at the documentation.
Drop them too. This should solve this warning:

Sphinx 3.x broke support for the cdomain.py extension, as the
c domain code was rewritten. Due to that, the c tags need to
be re-written, in order to use the new c domain notation.

The patch partially reverts some of the UAPI bits of the buffer
cache management hints. Namely, the queue consistency (memory
coherency) user-space hint because, as it turned out, the kernel
implementation of this feature was misusing DMA_ATTR_NON_CONSISTENT.
The patch reverts both kernel and user space parts: removes the
DMA consistency attr functions, rolls back changes to v4l2_requestbuffers,
v4l2_create_buffers structures and corresponding UAPI functions
(plus compat32 layer) and cleans up the documentation.

By setting or clearing V4L2_FLAG_MEMORY_NON_CONSISTENT flag
user-space should be able to set or clear queue's NON_CONSISTENT
->dma_attrs. Queue's ->dma_attrs are passed to the underlying
allocator in __vb2_buf_mem_alloc(), so thus user-space is able
to request vb2 buffer's memory to be either consistent (coherent)
or non-consistent.
The patch set also adds a corresponding capability flag:
fill_buf_caps() reports V4L2_BUF_CAP_SUPPORTS_MMAP_CACHE_HINTS
when queue supports user-space cache management hints. Note,
however, that MMAP_CACHE_HINTS capability only valid when the
queue is used for memory MMAP-ed streaming I/O.

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.
