rust: drm: rename Uninit DeviceContext to Normal

Rename the Uninit DeviceContext to Normal to better reflect its purpose
as the general-purpose, reference-counted device context. The Uninit
name was a leftover from when DRM device private data initialization was
planned to split across UnregisteredDevice::new() and
Registration::new(); with the subsequent introduction of
RegistrationData, this distinction is no longer needed.

This also simplifies the DeviceContext documentation, trimming the
multi-stage initialization description that no longer applies.
Subsequent patches will refine the semantics of the Registered context
accordingly.

No functional change.

-/// Setting up a new [`Device`] is a multi-stage process. Each step of the process that a user
-/// interacts with in Rust has a respective [`DeviceContext`] typestate. For example,
-/// `Device<T, Registered>` would be a [`Device`] that reached the [`Registered`] [`DeviceContext`].
+/// A [`Device`] can be in one of two contexts:
 ///
-/// Each stage of this process is described below:

-/// ```
-///
-/// 1. The [`Device`] is in the [`Uninit`] context and is not guaranteed to be initialized or
-///    registered with userspace. Only a limited subset of DRM core functionality is available.
-/// 2. The [`Device`] is guaranteed to be fully initialized, but is not guaranteed to be registered
-///    with userspace. All DRM core functionality which doesn't interact with userspace is
-///    available. We currently don't have a context for representing this.
-/// 3. The [`Device`] is guaranteed to be fully initialized, and is guaranteed to have been
-///    registered with userspace at some point - thus putting it in the [`Registered`] context.
-///
-/// An important caveat of [`DeviceContext`] which must be kept in mind: when used as a typestate
-/// for a reference type, it can only guarantee that a [`Device`] reached a particular stage in the
-/// initialization process _at the time the reference was taken_. No guarantee is made in regards to
-/// what stage of the process the [`Device`] is currently in. This means for instance that a
-/// `&Device<T, Uninit>` may actually be registered with userspace, it just wasn't known to be
-/// registered at the time the reference was taken.
