drm/i915: Introduce FBC DocBook. 

No functional changes.

v2 (Paulo): Rebase.
v3: Accept Daniel's suggestions:
    * remove unclear and duplicated explanation.
    * remove marketing like doc and replace by a simple one.
    * remove bdw_fbc_sw_flush documentation.

/**
* DOC: Frame Buffer Compression (FBC)
*
* FBC tries to save memory bandwidth (and so power consumption) by
* compressing the amount of memory used by the display. It is total
* transparent to user space and completely handled in the kernel.
*
* The benefits of FBC are mostly visible with solid backgrounds and
* variation-less patterns.
* variation-less patterns. It comes from keeping the memory footprint small
* and having fewer memory pages opened and accessed for refreshing the display.
*
* FBC-related functionality can be enabled by the means of the
* i915.i915_fbc_enable parameter
* i915 is responsible to reserve stolen memory for FBC and configure its
* offset on proper registers. The hardware takes care of all
* compress/decompress. However there are many known cases where we have to
* forcibly disable it to allow proper screen updates.
