Add generic serial metadata mbus formats. These formats describe data
width and packing but not the content itself. The reason for specifying
such formats is that the formats as such are fairly device specific but
they are still handled by CSI-2 receiver drivers that should not be aware
of device specific formats. What makes generic metadata formats possible
is that these formats are parsed by software only, after capturing the
data to system memory.
Also add a definition for "Data Unit" to cover what is essentially a pixel
but is not image data.

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

Sphinx 3.x is pedantic with glossary entries:
Documentation/userspace-api/media/glossary.rst:17: WARNING: term device driver not found in case sensitive match.made a reference to Device Driver instead.
Documentation/userspace-api/media/glossary.rst:59: WARNING: term media hardware not found in case sensitive match.made a reference to Media Hardware instead.
Documentation/userspace-api/media/glossary.rst:59: WARNING: term IP block not found in case sensitive match.made a reference to IP Block instead.

While it works with case-insensitive entires, it complains.
Let's fix it, in order to cleanup the warnings. Also, I won't
doubt that a later change on Sphinx will end breaking support
for it.

Add a glossary of terms used within the media userspace API
documentation, as several concepts are complex enough to cause
misunderstandings.
