Document new Hardware driven LEDs APIs.
Some LEDs can be programmed to be driven by hardware. This is not
limited to blink but also to turn off or on autonomously.
To support this feature, a LED needs to implement various additional
ops and needs to declare specific support for the supported triggers.
Add documentation for each required value and API to make hw control
possible and implementable by both LEDs and triggers.

The contents of the Future Development section of leds-class
Documentation was invalidated when support for LED-private triggers
was merged. Remove this section.

Add generic support for composing LED class device name. The newly
introduced led_compose_name() function composes device name according
to either <color:function> or <devicename:color:function> pattern,
depending on the configuration of initialization data.
Backward compatibility with in-driver hard-coded LED class device
names is assured thanks to the default_label and devicename properties
of newly introduced struct led_init_data.
In case none of the aforementioned properties was found, then, for OF
nodes, the node name is adopted for LED class device name.
At the occassion of amending the Documentation/leds/leds-class.txt
unify spelling: colour -> color.
Alongside these changes added is a new tool - tools/leds/get_led_device_info.sh.
The tool allows retrieving details of a LED class device's parent device,
which proves that using vendor or product name for devicename part
of LED name doesn't convey any added value since that information had been
already available in sysfs. The script performs also basic validation
of a LED class device name.

Rename the leds documentation files to ReST, add an
index for them and adjust in order to produce a nice html
output via the Sphinx build system.
At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.
