drm/xe/vf: Document SRIOV VF restore flow

This adds a documentation chapter, containing high level flow
of VF restore procedure.

v2: Better describe initial conditions, include GuC states on
  sequence diagram (Michal)
v3: moved DOC to .c (Michal)

/**
* DOC: VF restore procedure in PF KMD and VF KMD
*
* Restoring previously saved state of a VF is one of core features of
* SR-IOV. All major VM Management applications allow saving and restoring
* the VM state, and doing that to a VM which uses SRIOV VF as one of
* the accessible devices requires support from KMD on both PF and VF side.
* VMM initiates all required operations through VFIO module, which then
* translates them into PF KMD calls. This description will focus on these
* calls, leaving out the module which initiates these steps (VFIO).
*
* In order to start the restore procedure, GuC needs to keep the VF in
* proper state. The PF driver can ensure GuC set it to VF_READY state
* by provisioning the VF, which in turn can be done after Function Level
* Reset of said VF (or after it was freshly created - in that case FLR
* is not needed). The FLR procedure ends with GuC sending message
* `GUC_PF_NOTIFY_VF_FLR_DONE`, and then provisioning data is sent to GuC.
* After the provisioning is completed, the VF needs to be paused, and
* at that point the actual restore can begin.
*
* During VF Restore, state of several resources is restored. These may
* include local memory content (system memory is restored by VMM itself),
* values of MMIO registers, stateless compression metadata and others.
* The final resource which also needs restoring is state of the VF
* submission maintained within GuC. For that, `GUC_PF_OPCODE_VF_RESTORE`
* message is used, with reference to the state blob to be consumed by
* GuC.
*
* Next, when VFIO is asked to set the VM into running state, the PF driver
* sends `GUC_PF_TRIGGER_VF_RESUME` to GuC. When sent after restore, this
* changes VF state within GuC to `VF_RESFIX_BLOCKED` rather than the
* usual `VF_RUNNING`. At this point GuC triggers an interrupt to inform
* the VF KMD within the VM that it was migrated.
*
* As soon as Virtual GPU of the VM starts, the VF driver within receives
* the MIGRATED interrupt and schedules post-migration recovery worker.
* That worker queries GuC for new provisioning (using MMIO communication),
* and applies fixups to any non-virtualized resources used by the VF.
*
* When the VF driver is ready to continue operation on the newly connected
* hardware, it sends `VF2GUC_NOTIFY_RESFIX_DONE` which causes it to
* enter the long awaited `VF_RUNNING` state, and therefore start handling
* CTB messages and scheduling workloads from the VF::
