This updates the documentation on the intel CCS modifiers for a couple of reasons:
1) The old documentation required that the CCS modifier only be used with 8888 formats. While i915 currently only supports CCS scanout with 8888 formats (and advertises such through the blob format), CCS can be used with many other formats. Mesa, in particular, can handle CCS on the full range of formats supported by the hardware. For image sharing entirely within userspace, we don't want this restriction.
2) The old documentation specified the scaling factor in terms of pixels which breaks down when you start using formats which are not 32-bit. By specifying it in terms of cache lines and tiles, we can properly specify the scale-down relationship with no format size assumptions.
3) The new comment provides more detail about the "real" layout of CCS on Sky Lake and also points out that the reason why Y tiling is important is because it affects row pitch calculations.
4) We shouldn't be documenting the Yf CCS modifier yet. Userspace is incapable of generating it right now and we don't fully know how it works yet. Trying to fully describe it is premature.
