Currently it can difficult to determine what dmatest does without
reading the source code. Let's add a description.
The description is taken mostly from the patch header of
commit 4a776f0aa9 ("dmatest: Simple DMA memcpy test client").
It has been edited and updated slightly. Nevertheless the new text was
largely written by Haarvard Skinnemoen and was copied from another
patch, already committed to the kernel, which has Haarvard's SoB:
attached to it.

Fix the formatting of the multi-channel test usage example. Call out
the note about parameter ordering and add detail on the settings of
parameters for the new version of dmatest.

The documentation is not so clear for newbies in a sense of what type of the
channels are supported by it.
Clarify this by adding a note at the preamble of the documentation.
