Documentation: HID: intel-ish-hid editing & corrections

Browse Source 
Do basic editing & correction to intel-ish-hid.rst:
- fix grammar, verb tense, punctutation, and word phrasing
- fix spellos
- hyphenate multi-word adjectives
- collapse 2 spaces to one space in the middle of sentences
- use "I2C" instead of lower-case letters (as Linux I2C does)
- change space indentation to tab
- use HID instead of hid consistently
- use a list so that some line items do not run together
- use "a UUID" instead of "an UUID"

A sensor hub enables the ability to offload sensor polling and algorithm
processing to a dedicated low power co-processor. This allows the core
processor to go into low power modes more often, resulting in the increased

doorbell register is used by host drivers to determine that the interrupt

Each side has 32 32-bit message registers and a 32-bit doorbell. Doorbell
register has the following format:
Bits 0..6: fragment length (7 bits are used)

3.3.2 Connection and Flow Control Mechanism
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Each FW client and a protocol is identified by an UUID. In order to communicate
Each FW client and a protocol is identified by a UUID. In order to communicate
to a FW client, a connection must be established using connect request and
response bus messages. If successful, a pair (host_client_id and fw_client_id)
will identify the connection.
Once connection is established, peers send each other flow control bus messages
independently. Every peer may send a message only if it has received a
flow-control credit before. Once it sent a message, it may not send another one
flow-control credit before. Once it has sent a message, it may not send another one
before receiving the next flow control credit.
Either side can send disconnect request bus message to end communication. Also
the link will be dropped if major FW reset occurs.
