[media] DocBook: Move all media docbook stuff into its own directory

This patch addresses several issues pointed by Randy Dunlap
<rdunlap@xenotime.net> at changeset ece722c:

- In the generated index.html file, "media" is listed first, but it
  should be listed in alphabetical order, not first.

- The generated files are (hidden) in .tmpmedia/

- The link from the top-level index.html file to "media" is to
  media/index.html, but the file is actually in .tmpmedia/media/index.html

- Please build docs with and without using "O=builddir" and test that.

- Would it be possible for media to have its own Makefile instead of
  merging into this one?

Due to the way cleandocs target works, I had to rename the media DocBook
to media_api, otherwise cleandocs would remove the /media directory.

Thanks-to: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net>

+  <title>Video Overlay Interface</title>
+  <subtitle>Also known as Framebuffer Overlay or Previewing</subtitle>
+
+  <para>Video overlay devices have the ability to genlock (TV-)video
+into the (VGA-)video signal of a graphics card, or to store captured
+images directly in video memory of a graphics card, typically with
+clipping. This can be considerable more efficient than capturing
+images and displaying them by other means. In the old days when only
+nuclear power plants needed cooling towers this used to be the only
+way to put live video into a window.</para>
+
+  <para>Video overlay devices are accessed through the same character
+special files as <link linkend="capture">video capture</link> devices.
+Note the default function of a <filename>/dev/video</filename> device
+is video capturing. The overlay function is only available after
+calling the &VIDIOC-S-FMT; ioctl.</para>
+
+    <para>The driver may support simultaneous overlay and capturing
+using the read/write and streaming I/O methods. If so, operation at
+the nominal frame rate of the video standard is not guaranteed. Frames
+may be directed away from overlay to capture, or one field may be used
+for overlay and the other for capture if the capture parameters permit
+this.</para>
+
+  <para>Applications should use different file descriptors for
+capturing and overlay. This must be supported by all drivers capable
+of simultaneous capturing and overlay. Optionally these drivers may
+also permit capturing and overlay with a single file descriptor for
+compatibility with V4L and earlier versions of V4L2.<footnote>
+	<para>A common application of two file descriptors is the
+XFree86 <link linkend="xvideo">Xv/V4L</link> interface driver and
+a V4L2 application. While the X server controls video overlay, the
+application can take advantage of memory mapping and DMA.</para>
+	<para>In the opinion of the designers of this API, no driver
+writer taking the efforts to support simultaneous capturing and
+overlay will restrict this ability by requiring a single file
+descriptor, as in V4L and earlier versions of V4L2. Making this
+optional means applications depending on two file descriptors need
+backup routines to be compatible with all drivers, which is
+considerable more work than using two fds in applications which do
+not. Also two fd's fit the general concept of one file descriptor for
+each logical stream. Hence as a complexity trade-off drivers
+<emphasis>must</emphasis> support two file descriptors and
+<emphasis>may</emphasis> support single fd operation.</para>

+
+    <para>Before overlay can commence applications must program the
+driver with frame buffer parameters, namely the address and size of
+the frame buffer and the image format, for example RGB 5:6:5. The
+&VIDIOC-G-FBUF; and &VIDIOC-S-FBUF; ioctls are available to get
+and set these parameters, respectively. The
+<constant>VIDIOC_S_FBUF</constant> ioctl is privileged because it
+allows to set up DMA into physical memory, bypassing the memory
+protection mechanisms of the kernel. Only the superuser can change the
+frame buffer address and size. Users are not supposed to run TV
+applications as root or with SUID bit set. A small helper application
+with suitable privileges should query the graphics system and program
+the V4L2 driver at the appropriate time.</para>
+
+    <para>Some devices add the video overlay to the output signal
+of the graphics card. In this case the frame buffer is not modified by
+the video device, and the frame buffer address and pixel format are
+not needed by the driver. The <constant>VIDIOC_S_FBUF</constant> ioctl
+is not privileged. An application can check for this type of device by
+calling the <constant>VIDIOC_G_FBUF</constant> ioctl.</para>

+    <title>Overlay Window</title>
+
+    <para>The overlaid image is determined by cropping and overlay
+window parameters. The former select an area of the video picture to
+capture, the latter how images are overlaid and clipped. Cropping
+initialization at minimum requires to reset the parameters to
+defaults. An example is given in <xref linkend="crop" />.</para>
+
+    <para>The overlay window is described by a &v4l2-window;. It
+defines the size of the image, its position over the graphics surface
+and the clipping to be applied. To get the current parameters
+applications set the <structfield>type</structfield> field of a
+&v4l2-format; to <constant>V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OVERLAY</constant> and
+call the &VIDIOC-G-FMT; ioctl. The driver fills the
+<structname>v4l2_window</structname> substructure named
+<structfield>win</structfield>. It is not possible to retrieve a
+previously programmed clipping list or bitmap.</para>
+
+    <para>To program the overlay window applications set the
+<structfield>type</structfield> field of a &v4l2-format; to
+<constant>V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OVERLAY</constant>, initialize the
+<structfield>win</structfield> substructure and call the
+&VIDIOC-S-FMT; ioctl. The driver adjusts the parameters against
+hardware limits and returns the actual parameters as
+<constant>VIDIOC_G_FMT</constant> does. Like
+<constant>VIDIOC_S_FMT</constant>, the &VIDIOC-TRY-FMT; ioctl can be
+used to learn about driver capabilities without actually changing
+driver state. Unlike <constant>VIDIOC_S_FMT</constant> this also works
+after the overlay has been enabled.</para>
+
+    <para>The scaling factor of the overlaid image is implied by the
+width and height given in &v4l2-window; and the size of the cropping
+rectangle. For more information see <xref linkend="crop" />.</para>
+
+    <para>When simultaneous capturing and overlay is supported and
+the hardware prohibits different image and window sizes, the size
+requested first takes precedence. The attempt to capture or overlay as
+well (&VIDIOC-S-FMT;) may fail with an &EBUSY; or return accordingly
