drm/doc: Hide legacy horrors better

By consolidating them all into one section at the very end. And to
make double-sure that no one gets confused start with a stern warning
against any use of them. And prefix all subsections with "Legacy".

-      Those are legacy suspend and resume methods. New driver should use the

+      The section very brievely covers some of the old legacy support code which
+      is only used by old DRM drivers which have done a so-called shadow-attach
+      to the underlying device instead of registering as a real driver. This
+      also includes some of the old generic buffer mangement and command
+      submission code. Do not use any of this in new and modern drivers.
