media: Documentation: vivid.rst: drop "Video, VBI and RDS Looping"
Drop the "Video, VBI and RDS Looping" section, instead moving the Video/VBI info to section "Video and Sliced VBI looping" and the RDS info to section "Radio & RDS Looping". Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil <hverkuil-cisco@xs4all.nl>

-Video, VBI and RDS Looping
---------------------------

The way to enable video/VBI looping is currently fairly crude. A 'Loop Video'
control is available in the "Vivid" control class of the video
capture and VBI capture devices. When checked the video looping will be enabled.
