Documentation: ACPI: Update references

Update references for the ACPI _DSD documentation. In particular:

- Substitute _DSD property and hierarchical data extension documents with
the newer DSD guide that replaces both, and use its HTML form.

- Refer to the latest ACPI spec.

- Add data node reference documentation reference to graph documentation.

# a1117495 01-Dec-2021 Sakari Ailus <sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com>

Documentation: ACPI: Fix data node reference documentation

The data node reference documentation was missing a package that must
contain the property values, instead property name and multiple values
being present in a single package. This is not aligned with the _DSD
spec.

Fix it by adding the package for the values.

Also add the missing "reg" properties to two numbered nodes.

# 4d361d6c 16-Jun-2021 Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org>

docs: firmware-guide: acpi: avoid using ReST :doc:`foo` markup

The :doc:`foo` tag is auto-generated via automarkup.py.
So, use the filename at the sources, instead of :doc:`foo`.

# 4ce77966 17-Jul-2020 Alexander A. Klimov <grandmaster@al2klimov.de>

ACPI: Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones

Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
If not .svg:
For each line:
If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
If neither `\bgnu\.org/license`, nor `\bmozilla\.org/MPL\b`:
If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
return 200 OK and serve the same content:
Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

# a423bd84 09-May-2019 Sakari Ailus <sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com>

Documentation: ACPI: Direct references are allowed to devices only

In ACPI it is possible to make references to device objects only,
not to other objects inside a device.

In practice this means that hierarchical data extension targets
must be in parentheses to make them strings, or an ACPICA warning
will be produced.

This converts the plain text documentation to reStructuredText format
and adds it to Sphinx TOC tree.

No essential content change.
