docs: pci: boot-interrupts.rst: improve html output
There are some warnings with this file: /Documentation/PCI/boot-interrupts.rst:42: WARNING: Unexpected indentation. /Documentation/PCI/boot-interrupts.rst:52: WARNING: Block quote ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent. /Documentation/PCI/boot-interrupts.rst:92: WARNING: Unexpected indentation. /Documentation/PCI/boot-interrupts.rst:98: WARNING: Unexpected indentation. /Documentation/PCI/boot-interrupts.rst:136: WARNING: Unexpected indentation. It turns that this file conversion to ReST could be improved, in order to remove the warnings and provide a better output. So, fix the warnings by adjusting blank lines, add a table and some list markups. Also, mark endnodes as such.
