[media] v4l2-subdev.rst: add cross references to new sections

The two new sections were missing cross-references, and had
some other minor issues with the markups. Add such things.

V4L2 sub-device userspace API

Beside exposing a kernel API through the v4l2_subdev_ops structure, V4L2
sub-devices can also be controlled directly by userspace applications.

sub-devices directly. If a sub-device supports direct userspace configuration
it must set the ``V4L2_SUBDEV_FL_HAS_DEVNODE`` flag before being registered.
After registering sub-devices, the v4l2_device driver can create device nodes
for all registered sub-devices marked with V4L2_SUBDEV_FL_HAS_DEVNODE by calling
v4l2_device_register_subdev_nodes(). Those device nodes will be automatically
removed when sub-devices are unregistered.
