drm/i915/perf: More documentation hooked to i915.rst

This adds a 'Perf' section to i915.rst with the following sub sections:
- Overview
- Comparison with Core Perf
- i915 Driver Entry Points
- i915 Perf Stream
- i915 Perf Observation Architecture Stream
- All i915 Perf Internals

v2:
    section headers in i915.rst (Daniel Vetter)
    missing symbol docs + other fixups (Matthew Auld)
