drm/crc-debugfs: Add notes about CRC<->commit interactions

CRC generation can be impacted by commits coming from userspace, and
enabling CRC generation may itself trigger a commit. Add notes about
this to the kerneldoc.

Changes since v1:
 - Clarified that anything that would disable CRCs counts as a full
   modeset, and so userspace needs to reconfigure after full modesets

Changes since v2:
 - Add these notes
 - Rebase onto drm-misc-next (trivial conflict in comment)

* implement &drm_crtc_funcs.set_crc_source and &drm_crtc_funcs.verify_crc_source.
* The debugfs files are automatically set up if those vfuncs are set. CRC samples
* need to be captured in the driver by calling drm_crtc_add_crc_entry().
* Depending on the driver and HW requirements, &drm_crtc_funcs.set_crc_source
* may result in a commit (even a full modeset).
*
* CRC results must be reliable across non-full-modeset atomic commits, so if a
* commit via DRM_IOCTL_MODE_ATOMIC would disable or otherwise interfere with
* CRC generation, then the driver must mark that commit as a full modeset
* (drm_atomic_crtc_needs_modeset() should return true). As a result, to ensure
* consistent results, generic userspace must re-setup CRC generation after a
* legacy SETCRTC or an atomic commit with DRM_MODE_ATOMIC_ALLOW_MODESET.
