Documentation/gpu: Add Multiplane Overlay doc

Multiple plane overlay is a feature supported by AMD hardware, but it
has specific details that deserve proper documentation. This commit
introduces a documentation that describes some of the features,
limitations, and use cases for this feature. Part of this documentation
came from some discussion in the public upstream [1][2].

Documentation/gpu: Add amdgpu and dc glossary

In the DC driver, we have multiple acronyms that are not obvious most of
the time; the same idea is valid for amdgpu. This commit introduces a DC
and amdgpu glossary in order to make it easier to navigate through our
driver.

Changes since V3:
- Yann: Add new acronyms to amdgpu glossary
- Daniel: Add link between dc and amdgpu glossary

Changes since V2:
- Add MMHUB

Changes since V1:
- Yann: Divide glossary based on driver context.
- Alex: Make terms more consistent and update CPLIB
- Add new acronyms to the glossary

- Daniel: Drop redundant amdgpu prefix.
- Jani: Create index pages.
