Subject: [PATCH next] Documentation: KVM: fix reference for kvm_ppc_resize_hpt and various typos

Fix the incorrect reference to struct kvm_reinject_control and replace
it with the correct struct kvm_ppc_resize_hpt in the documentation of
the HPT resize ioctl.

Also correct several minor typos throughout api.rst, including grammar
issues, capitalization (e.g., "SError"), and punctuation fixes.
