V4L/DVB (12761): DocBook: add media API specs
The V4L and DVB API's are there for a long time. however, up to now,
no efforts were done to merge them to kernel DocBook.
This patch adds the current versions of the specs as an unique compendium.

+<para>We will start with a generic tuning subroutine that uses the frontend and SEC, as well as
+the demux devices. The example is given for QPSK tuners, but can easily be adjusted for
+QAM.

+<para>The program assumes that you are using a universal LNB and a standard DiSEqC
+switch with up to 4 addresses. Of course, you could build in some more checking if
+tuning was successful and maybe try to repeat the tuning process. Depending on the
+external hardware, i.e. LNB and DiSEqC switch, and weather conditions this may be
+necessary.
