[media] doc-rst: document LIRC set mode ioctls

Add LIRC_SET_[REC|SEND]_MODE ioctls to the corresponding
GET functions, and put all LIRC modes altogether.

As now everything is already documented on its own ioctl
pages, get rid of lirc_ioctl.rst.

LIRC modes
**********
LIRC supports some modes of receiving and sending IR codes, as shown
on the following table.
.. _lirc-mode-mode2:
``LIRC_MODE_MODE2``
The driver returns a sequence of pulse and space codes to userspace.
This mode is used only for IR receive.
.. _lirc-mode-lirccode:
``LIRC_MODE_LIRCCODE``
The IR signal is decoded internally by the receiver. The LIRC interface
returns the scancode as an integer value. This is the usual mode used
by several TV media cards.
This mode is used only for IR receive.
.. _lirc-mode-pulse:
``LIRC_MODE_PULSE``
On puse mode, a sequence of pulse/space integer values are written to the
lirc device using :Ref:`lirc-write`.
This mode is used only for IR send.

************
LIRC ioctl()
************
Name
====
LIRC ioctl - Sends a I/O control command to a LIRC device
Synopsis
========
.. cpp:function:: int ioctl( int fd, int request, struct v4l2_capability *argp )
Arguments
=========
``fd``
File descriptor returned by ``open()``.
``request``
The type of I/O control that will be used. See table :ref:`lirc-request`
for details.
``argp``
Arguments for the I/O control. They're specific to each request.
The LIRC device's ioctl definition is bound by the ioctl function
definition of struct file_operations, leaving us with an unsigned int
for the ioctl command and an unsigned long for the arg. For the purposes
of ioctl portability across 32-bit and 64-bit, these values are capped
to their 32-bit sizes.
The ioctls can be used to change specific hardware settings.
In general each driver should have a default set of settings. The driver
implementation is expected to re-apply the default settings when the
device is closed by user-space, so that every application opening the
device can rely on working with the default settings initially.
.. _lirc-request:
.. _LIRC_SET_SEND_MODE:
.. _LIRC_SET_REC_MODE:
``LIRC_SET_{SEND,REC}_MODE``
Set send/receive mode. Largely obsolete for send, as only
``LIRC_MODE_PULSE`` is supported.
.. _lirc_dev_errors:
Return Value
============
On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
