Subject: [PATCH v7 11/11] media: imx.rst: Update doc to reflect fixes to interlaced capture

Also add an example pipeline for unconverted capture with interweave
on SabreAuto.

Cleanup some language in various places in the process.

Signed-off-by: Steve Longerbeam <slongerbeam@...il.com>

Changes since v4:
- Make clear that it is IDMAC channel that does pixel reordering and
  interweave, not the CSI. Caught by Philipp Zabel.
Changes since v3:
- none.
Changes since v2:
- expand on idmac interweave behavior in CSI subdev.
- switch second SabreAuto pipeline example to PAL to give
  both NTSC and PAL examples.
- Cleanup some language in various places.
