drm/i915/huc: improve documentation

Better explain the usage of the microcontroller and what i915 is
responsible of. While at it, fix the documentation for the auth
function, which doesn't do any pinning anymore.

v2: add a comment on HuC being optional and descrive how HuC accesses
    memory (Martin)
v3: add extra newline for better text organization (Martin)

+ * DOC: HuC

+ * The HuC is a dedicated microcontroller for usage in media HEVC (High
+ * Efficiency Video Coding) operations. Userspace can directly use the firmware
+ * capabilities by adding HuC specific commands to batch buffers.
+ *
+ * The kernel driver is only responsible for loading the HuC firmware and
+ * triggering its security authentication, which is performed by the GuC. For
+ * The GuC to correctly perform the authentication, the HuC binary must be
+ * loaded before the GuC one. Loading the HuC is optional; however, not using
+ * the HuC might negatively impact power usage and/or performance of media
+ * workloads, depending on the use-cases.
+ *
+ * See https://github.com/intel/media-driver for the latest details on HuC

+ * DOC: HuC Memory Management

+ * Similarly to the GuC, the HuC can't do any memory allocations on its own,

+ * the userspace driver instead of the kernel one. The HuC accesses the memory
+ * via the PPGTT belonging to the context loaded on the VCS executing the
