scsi: documentation: Fix case of 'scsi_device' struct mention(s)

Browse Source 
In scsi_mid_low_api.txt a the scsi_device structure is mentioned
several times, but the leading 's' is uppercase (Scsi_device)
and should be lowercase (scsi_device).  Fixed by this commit.

The scsi_device structure has had reference counting infrastructure added.
This effectively spreads the ownership of struct scsi_device instances
across the various SCSI layers which use them. Previously such instances
were exclusively owned by the mid level. See the access functions declared
towards the end of include/scsi/scsi_device.h . If an LLD wants to keep
a copy of a pointer to a Scsi_device instance it should use scsi_device_get()
a copy of a pointer to a scsi_device instance it should use scsi_device_get()
to bump its reference count. When it is finished with the pointer it can
use scsi_device_put() to decrement its reference count (and potentially
delete it).
