docs: kvm: convert devices/xics.txt to ReST

- Use title markups;
- adjust indentation and add blank lines as needed;
- adjust tables to match ReST accepted formats;
- use :field: markups.

XICS interrupt controller

Device type supported: KVM_DEV_TYPE_XICS
Groups:
1. KVM_DEV_XICS_GRP_SOURCES
Attributes: One per interrupt source, indexed by the source number.

The kvm_device_attr.addr points to a __u32 value which is the number of
interrupt server numbers (ie, highest possible vcpu id plus one).
Errors:
-EINVAL: Value greater than KVM_MAX_VCPU_ID.
-EFAULT: Invalid user pointer for attr->addr.
-EBUSY: A vcpu is already connected to the device.

This device emulates the XICS (eXternal Interrupt Controller
Specification) defined in PAPR. The XICS has a set of interrupt
@ -53,24 +64,29 @@ the interrupt source number. The 64 bit state word has the following
bitfields, starting from the least-significant end of the word:
* Destination (server number), 32 bits
This specifies where the interrupt should be sent, and is the
interrupt server number specified for the destination vcpu.
* Priority, 8 bits
This is the priority specified for this interrupt source, where 0 is
the highest priority and 255 is the lowest. An interrupt with a
priority of 255 will never be delivered.
* Level sensitive flag, 1 bit
This bit is 1 for a level-sensitive interrupt source, or 0 for
edge-sensitive (or MSI).
* Masked flag, 1 bit
This bit is set to 1 if the interrupt is masked (cannot be delivered
regardless of its priority), for example by the ibm,int-off RTAS
call, or 0 if it is not masked.
* Pending flag, 1 bit
This bit is 1 if the source has a pending interrupt, otherwise 0.
Only one XICS instance may be created per VM.
