ACPI / video: move video_extension.txt to Documentation/acpi
ACPI video driver is written according to ACPI spec, appendix B: Video Extensions. So it better be put under the acpi directory instead of the power directory. This patch moves the file there without any other change. Signed-off-by: Aaron Lu <aaron.lu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

4This driver implement the ACPI Extensions For Display Adapters for
5integrated graphics devices on motherboard, as specified in ACPI 2.0
6Specification, Appendix B, allowing to perform some basic control like
7defining the video POST device, retrieving EDID information or to
8setup a video output, etc. Note that this is an ref. implementation
9only. It may or may not work for your integrated video device.
