media: Documentation/media/uapi: more readable unions
Avoid adding an extra columns when describing unions in the documentation.
That makes it much harder to read. See e.g. VIDIOC_QUERY_EXT_CTRLS.
Instead start off a union with 'union {' and end it with an extra row
containing '}'.
This leaves a lot more space for the description of the fields.
This formatting technique was used in a few places already, but this
patches fixes all remaining occurrences of 'union' in the media uAPI.
