[media] doc-rst: Convert ci.txt to a rst file
The old ci.txt file had a very peculiar format, with doesn't match any markup language I know. Change it to be on ReST format, for it to be parsed by Sphinx. Also, as this is an old document, add a note about it. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
