drm/doc: Reorg for drm-kms.rst
- Again adjust headings a bit, and don't mix up the initialization
sections with other stuff.
- Remove the doc for output polling, that vfunc is now properly
documented in the vfunc reference sections.
- Move the grab-bag with all the core stuff (i.e. drm_crtc.[hc]) to
the front for a more prominent place.
