[PATCH 6/6] drm: Update TTM initialization documentation

ttm_global_reference was renamed to drm_global_reference. This updates
the documentation to reflect that. While we are there, document the
drm_global_reference API and update the initialization interface
documentation.

TTM initialization

- **Warning**
+Drivers wishing to support TTM must pass a filled :c:type:`ttm_bo_driver
+<ttm_bo_driver>` structure to ttm_bo_device_init, together with an
+initialized global reference to the memory manager. The ttm_bo_driver
+structure contains several fields with function pointers for
+initializing the TTM, allocating and freeing memory, waiting for command
+completion and fence synchronization, and memory migration.
