media: v4l: Documentation: Raw Bayer formats are not RGB formats

The raw Bayer formats have been listed under the label of RGB formats but
in fact they're quite different. The latter are readily usable as such
whereas the former require quite bit of image processing before useful.

Split them into RGB and raw Bayer formats.

Raw Bayer Formats
*****************
Description
===========
The raw Bayer formats are used by image sensors before much if any processing is
performed on the image. The formats contain green, red and blue components, with
alternating lines of red and green, and blue and green pixels in different
orders. See also `the Wikipedia article on Bayer filter
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayer_filter>`__.
